Love Thursday: July 17, 2008

071708_600.jpg

I've been going through my archives over the past few days, and I stumbled across this photograph of my daughter resting her head on her father's shoulder.  At the time, Alex was about 2 years old.  She's only 4 now, yet the feeling of nostalgia that washed over me as I looked at this shot was palpable.  Alex and my husband remain as close as ever; but this image made me realize how long that closeness has existed.  I love the soulfulness in her eyes.  This is definitely one she'll hang in her college dorm room.

Happy Love Thursday, everyone.   As always, please leave your links of love in the comments section below, and be sure to check out the beautiful shots left by lorelairoark and VWC Photography in our Shutter Sisters Flickr pool.

For those of you who will be attending BlogHer, I look forward to meeting you at the Shutter Sisters Photo Walk!  My husband bought me  a point-and-shoot camera (a Nikon Coolpix!), and I have NO idea how to use it.  I'll be looking for tips from you all!

And may you shoot lots of memories today.

    You’ll have to forgive me a bit of sappiness, today, but this is what happens when I’ve just been to what was perhaps the nicest wedding I’ve ever attended (I’m not counting my own, you understand). While MY “year of livin...

wow, that's a wonderful look in her eyes.

Here's one I found of my daughter loving on a tree. She's such a nature buff!

She looks right at home on her dad's shoulders. Just as it should be!

Your picture reminds me of my little sweet pea.

For over a year now, my little guy and I have been taking pretty much the same walk around our downtown area. It includes a stop at the local coffee shop, a walk over the river, a search for turtles, and a rest at this little circular garden with a rock wall. Imagine my surprise when I realized after a year that I was sitting on this...I don't know how I missed it!

I walked outside one morning and found this shot waiting for me to grab it. I think it was yet another gift from my garden.

I love that picture of Marcus and Alex. You've got quite a photo record of your lives together. Here's a picture of my oldest and youngest daughters together: http://graymattersonline.net/2008/07/17/willing-accomplice/

Went to see Ani Difranco last week, one of my favorite artists, and could not stop pointing the camera at the crowd. So much peace, happy thoughts, love for all.
