Rhetorical questions?

Wait, don’t answer that.


Who is in charge of this toddler?

Who happily agreed to make 100 dozen (!!) treats while Hubby was out of town?

Where is Piggy?

Can someone convince him that apple slices are waaaay more efficient?

Is there anything funnier than animal hats?

Why am I wearing this exact same outfit in every photo from Nov. and Dec.?

Why is my Christmas wreath flipping me off?

What is it about being near a giant tree that makes all the daily crap seem smaller and more manageable?

I still have plenty to learn about photography, but the one rule I have totally mastered: keep your camera handy so you don’t miss moments like this one.

Flying lessons

This is love: to fly toward a secret sky,
to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment.
First, to let go of life.
Finally, to take a step without feet.

Is there anything greater than watching your child fall in love, especially when it’s with something that makes your own heart sing?

If you own a dog, especially a Lab, you know that this series of photos is about more than just cute kidness…it’s about smart Momness. Next thing you know I will have him doing the laundry.
