Maybe I relate to them as I'm getting further away from my youth every day, deluding myself that maybe my looks, like one of a fading flower are just as lovely as when I was a dewy-faced 20-year-old because they are more interesting.

Unfortunately their appetites are not affected, and left to their own devices they will strip my cupboards bare in a few hours. Having kids like mine is like living with four termites ranging from 40-110 pounds.

Do you have any suggestions? . . . → Read More: Outsmarting Termites I know photographs of flowers are, um, common, to say the least. But one could argue everything beautiful is common. And isn't that the most beautiful part, that lovely things are everywhere? Flowers are common and rare at the same time because even though every week or so the riot of flowers changes types, you only see crocuses or daffodils or tulips or apple tree blossoms or irises or sunflowers at certain times of the year.

l-r: Hazel, Olivia, Henry, Mackenzie. The girls are 16, 10 and 5. It's like the three stages of being a girl. <3 Last night our schedules aligned and Ryan brought his kids over for dinner, hanging out and Wii fun. . . . → Read More: Bedlam & Bliss If later you see a photo of me on fire in the snow with a Viking helmet and a dress made out of library card catalogs, now you'll know I agreed to it. . . . → Read More: Oh, also… This is Ryan. He's a photographer so he's used to being behind the camera, but not in front of it. He's getting better at letting me take his picture, see? I think I'm getting better at letting go of my intimidated inhibitions and taking his picture too. It's all working out nicely.

They were so, so, so fun and so beautiful and we had a blast. I don't believe in a lot of post-processing nonsense, so these are almost straight-out-of-the-camera.
