香蕉视频直播淚 sent the portrait to Rose, and heard back from her that she loved it,香蕉视频直播� says Nandhra. 香蕉视频直播淚t was very touching. I got quite a few messages back from family members saying 香蕉视频直播楾hank you.香蕉视频直播� Clayton香蕉视频直播檚 son Derek got in touch with me and said I香蕉视频直播檇 captured his father香蕉视频直播檚 eyes and smile perfectly. That was what I香蕉视频直播檇 wanted to do; and I started crying.
