I can be a little extra. I made a birthday cake for Louis Braille and it’s laced with symbolism. 




Elizabeth is smiling ear to ear and is bundled up in a knit cap and jacket. Behind her is Notre Dame!

I have another week in Paris and it’s jammed full of braille related activities. All week I’ll be posting to Instagram of my travels.

Enjoy the videos and I’ll post more next Monday! 

Sincerely,

Elizabeth
