This little girl could be me.
She is looking with awe and wonder at the world around her,
slowing down to see the beauty
in a place that many would not.
I've always been a watcher of the world.
When I got my first camera, I wanted to take pictures of everything
but felt frustrated when the photos didn't match my memory.
I kept trying.
And it keeps getting closer.
I've always wanted to capture my day in pictures.
Yesterday I finally did.
I hope you get a feel for what my ordinary day was like.
My day began with a text message from my daughter.
It made me feel proud.
It also made me laugh.
Looking out my kitchen window, I had to take this picture of Halle.
She was probably watching for squirrels, but I like to think she was contemplating life.
Breakfast, emails, Facebook, and my Happy Light.
Next, it was fun to unpack a box from Bayphoto with client orders.
Momo watched me through the window.
Clean the litter box.
Clean the dishes in the sink.
I brushed Sami before giving him a bath (he wasn't very happy)
Maddie is always around!
He's so handsome!
For Sami, blow drying is the absolute worst part of bath day.
The self-time on the camera captured this cute picture of us!
All done.
Time to get myself ready for the day.
Momo was very curious about the camera.
Then she hammed it up.
Lunch!
Off to CVS.
Want to go for a ride?
Saying good-bye to Maddie before we go.
It's a beautiful day!
Maddie greets us when we get home.
After dropping off donations for Big Brothers/ Big Sisters
I head to Glastonbury for a dentist appointment.
Hartford is looking pretty!
No cavities!
I needed to pick up some things at Whole Foods.
The produce department there is a feast for the eyes.
Hartford is bathed in gold on the way home!
By the time I get to Manchester, it's already dark.
I stopped to buy yarn to knit a present for Annie.
These are my pictures with a long exposure on my way home through traffic.
Vance and I made a spinach, hamburg, onion pizza for dinner.
Halle waits for Vance to drop some cheese.
Yum!
Halle - still waiting.
Time for some TV.
Here comes Momo!
Do I love taking pictures because I notice things
or
do I notice things because I love taking pictures?
The answer is yes.
The End.
