I'm at it again - shamelessly using a contest as an excuse to plaster my family photos all over the net!
This week's theme is "joy" and joy comes in all sizes, packages and flavors. My kid's face entry is from my granddaughter's first birthday this past July. Yes, an adult is in the photo too but it's really part of the story! Aunt Megan is holding Mirai and the two girls are just too cute and happy together! I think Megan was missing having a baby girl because Kennedy is now 4 years old. And Mirai? Well, she is literally one of the happiest children on the face of the earth - everyone is a friend to her and she knows no strangers.
My adult entry was taken when we lived in England. My son, Timothy, and his bride to be at the time, Megan (yes, the same Aunt Megan above - hey, when you're THIS beautiful, you get a lot of press time perhaps??) came to visit us and we took a trip to the beautiful heart of England, the Cotswolds. We stayed in a 200 year old stone cottage on a farm and I just happened to catch this interaction between them. I don't know what they were discussing but as they were to be married within a couple of months, I can only imagine. I've always loved the tenderness this photo conveys.

I am flattered to be in both of your entrees, and very appreciative of you kind, really undeserved words.
We got some wonderful pictures that trip didn't we on our "old" cameras? Hard to go wrong in scenery that gorgeous.
Good luck!
oops Tim was logged in when I made that last comment. I'm sure he is flattered too but that was me writing. :)
Cheri, these are beautiful! Really perfect captures of joyful faces. I LOVE the baby's smile...what a little sweetheart. And the adult entry is lovely, too, such a sweet moment!
