...
I typically do not slow down enough to write or read for pleasure on a regular basis but one thing I do is capture life's moments through the lens of a camera. This isn't something I claim to be good at. In fact, photographer doesn't even come to mind when I think of who I am. What does come to mind is I'm the one with the camera journeying through life as a wife, mother, sister, daughter, aunt, and friend.

...to a dead Mother's Day present?

...life will hopefully be easy.  
A little over the top if you ask me but Derk 
handled it so I was happy!

 The best part is what isn't said in this photo...we had no 
plans of swimming but I guess Ty did.

Friday

I can't wait to capture more of these looks in the coming years. 

Thursday

6.2.11 - So We Try

The best part of this photo is Derk showing Ty how to push.  
I don't know what we were doing...we heading on vacation 
in just over a week.  Plus, he's not even two!

Wednesday

6.1.11 - Enough of an Impact

...because the next day I was home with Ty alone.  
He left the room and it was a little too quiet for a 
little too long.  I found him in the bathroom.  He had put 
this on the toilet and left a surprise for me in his diaper.  
Maybe he is ready...I'm not sure Mom and Dad are though.
