Leaves & Lace

Cold temperatures, crawling spiders, and creeping vines were abundant on this crisp Fall morning. L. dove right into the leaves and draped on all of the ivy she could find.





Swings & Slides

K.and S. both had a lot of energy. As they ran around the playground, slid down slides, and flew high on the swings, I was enamored with their differing personalities. One wanted to be in the spotlight giving me lots of poses, while the other preferred to make me (and her parents) work for something other than a pouty look. But in the end, the thing that got me the most was their attention to detail, exclaiming that each section of play equipment was dirty and that they would not sit on it until we wiped it down with a towel!

Mocktail Party

A swallow of Margarita, a splash of Cucumber Lime, and a drizzle of Shirley Temple...oh, and a wedge of Virgin goodness. Bright red lipstick and fake cigarettes were abundant on this beautiful late summer evening. I listen to the lilting voice of Norah and sit back and enjoy the company...
