The way I see it...

I absolutely love candid, everyday photography of children.  Something happens in that instant when a child is captured "on film".   

Maybe it's because I'm sentimental...
Maybe it's because I'm an artist...
Maybe it's because I idealize things...
I don't know.

But when I look at those frozen moments, it makes me see things clearly.  When it's my children, I suddenly am able to see those moments for what they really are.

Absolutely
Priceless
Precious
Wonderful
Moments

Those images allow me to realize what I'm sometimes not capable of realizing in the actual moment...
when I'm distracted by the noise, the chaos, the busyness of my day...

I see how blessed I am.
I see how perfect they are.
And I am thankful... overwhelmingly thankful.

  5. You have a beautiful blog... I can't quite remember how I cam across it. I started at eighteentwentyfive and somehow ended up over here? Anyway, my daughters have bunk beds and we saw your adorable sheet curtains and wondered how you hung them? My girls are dying to do it and I just found some beautiful vintage sheets yesterday.
