My Daughter's Artwork

This has nothing to do with photography but I'd like to post it anyway.  This is my daughter's artwork when she was a lot younger.  She is now 21 years old.  I kind of think when she drew it at the time, she was thinking about a boy that she probably had a crush on.  What do you think?

I NEED THE COLOR YELLOW!

The color yellow represents to me, the sun, brightness, happy and warmth.  The warmer weather cannot come fast enough.  Seems like this winter never ended. Blizzards and snow storms were throughout the eastern U.S.   Snow is pretty when it first falls in Connecticut, but after plowing, it's all dirty.  So I want to be in a yellow mood.  I can see now, why, yellow is my daughter's favorite color. This photo was taken in Stony Creek, Ct. during the end of the summer last year, when sunflowers are plentiful. I can hear the birds tweeting, feel the warm summer breeze and the smell of the sea at high tide.  Let's go for a dip in the ocean.

Gini And Her Daughter

Valentine' Day if for people you love or have loved so I just had to post this picture in memory of my friend Gini, before she was diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer at the age of 43.  She had 4 children all under the age of 7.  I met her when my daughter and her oldest daughter were in Kindergarden.  Our kids were best friends at that time. Gini was one of my best friends. This woman was the great mommy to her children. What a great friend she was and was always happy.  Her kids came first.  I miss her dearly and I think of her often .  Hopefully in Heaven, she knows that! Some people have great impact in our lives and she did for me.  Bless her!  To you Gini..............love ya!!!
Why is it that the good die young?

BEAUTIFUL!

I wish I looked like her.

Wow! This is the beginning of my new blog.

This is the beginning of my new blog.  This is a first for me.  I assume that you tell people what you are up to and what you are doing.  I'm not too good at that, but I will give it a try.  I guess it's something inside of me that doesn't like to give strangers personal business information.
