As a mother there is nothing that melts my heart more than when my children are kind to one another and spontaneously do things like this...and on this day I just happened to have my camera in my hand...this image is sure to be a treasure for years to come!
Now go check our more "love" entries over at I Heart Faces...
Okay...I'm trying not to be too obsessed with animations...trying but not succeeding! We have been quite housebound the last few weeks. It is bitter bitter bitter cold. My master bathroom shower pipes have been frozen and not working for two days now. It gets a little depressing BUT it makes us be a little more creative too..me with the light (dark basement) and us with our play....play kitchen turned puppet show theater. Fun fun fun...
The life of a six year old...man wouldn't it be nice to not have a care in the world?
Summertime is when childhood magic happens. It's running around barefoot, picking leaves & flowers, and laying in the grass. It's being bathed in sunlight and laughing without a care in the world. It doesn't matter what time it is or if you get really really dirty, or if you have messy uneven braids. Oh summertime, I miss you and wish you were here all year long...
All I can say it this one is a crack up. She is SO expressive whether she is happy, sad, or bored. I LOVE it. As a photographer an expressive child is a dream and she's mine and I get to see this stuff all day long! What a lucky Momma I am!
My messy faced, messy haired little girl...as she is most days of her little life. All is as it should be. This is childhood at it's finest! :)
The weather is CRAZY. The day before this snow came it was almost 70 degrees outside. Talk about a shock to the system! As soon as she got home from school I begged her to let me snap a few photos in the snow. She gave me 5 minutes and that's all we needed. Five minutes of fun in the snow for both of us....then we ran as fast as we could inside to snuggle up under the covers and get warm! These are the things life is made of! :)
This little wagon has provided hours of fun to all FOUR of my kids! It's not the prettiest thing but I love it so much! So many memories made on these wheels! Not sure why I chose these to blog today (of ALL the images that are long overdue a blog post) but I did. They are such a peek into our lives that I just couldn't resist. All taken on an uneventful walk across the street to the park. But it was one of those walks that the feeling of it all is somehow burnt in my mind and in my heart...the light, the wind, the laughter, and mostly the love. I won't soon forget it!
Attempting to be a better blogger! I literally have SO many images that need to be blogged. My facebook page has made me a little lazy. I can post and run there... HAHA...but I love to tell a story with my images and it's hard to do that without a post. So here's to working on being a better blogger! :)
I am SUCH a bad blogger...so much to blog and so little time...maybe someday I will get caught up! Here's a little something from the other day. She is OBSESSED with picking leaves...everywhere we go. And at home I find little piles of leaves all over my house in the most random places...makes me smile!
I set out to do an assignment for the Finding the Light workshop I am doing right now...she wasn't very cooperative as many two year old aren't. I didn't get shots in all the kinds of light I needed to for the assignment BUT I do love these and her and this light..and ummm the last one..well I guess I wore her out? HA...it's her thing lately to pretend she is asleep. She finds it to be SO funny and so do I!
and she's always up for anything...love this girl!
oh I am going to miss summer...we had a good one this year...lots hot days spent at the pool...this guy was always losing his trunks!
We went on a little impromptu walk yesterday evening down a little dirt road in our neighborhood to see the llamas. The light was LOVELY as you can see. I took 3 shots and my battery went dead. Sigh. I guess two decent shots out of three is not too shabby but I can't stop thinking about all the missed photos in this yummy light. I guess you could say I'm a little obsessed (my husband sure would).
