All gorgeous photos ... but my absolute favourite? The one of those two happy-faced, adorable children laying on their backs in the long grass with their hands behind their heads. Now THAT is a special moment to treasure.

Little Kate

Blackbird - Thanks much for stopping by!

Little Kate - Funny you should mention that photo! It's the one out of the bunch that is framed and in my living room! Thanks!

Nick Drake (have you heard of him, heard him?) once sang,

“Tell me all that you may know
Show me what you have to show
Won't you come and say
If you know the way to blue”

Wish he was around to see this photo essay.

James - Love that and no, haven't hear of him before. Will have to check him out. Thanks much for this great comment!

Scylla - Thank you very much! Hope you are doing well and thriving. Sometimes there are just no words to describe what we are feeling and photos simply say it best.
