Through the Eyes of a Child







This is what happens when you leave your camera within reach of a soon to be four year old!
Do you think we have a budding photographer on our hands? I am always amazed when I look at the world through the eyes of a child...have you ever gotten on your knees and crawled around...things sure look different from that angle! I am convinced we move into a state of ennui when we constantly do things the same way everyday or look at things with our "grown up" eyes. We often miss the subtle occurances happening all around us. My children frequently inspired me to reach new heights. My grandchildren give me the opportunity to see things anew again. Hunter and I were riding in the Boxster with the top down...He always says "put it down, Nonnee!" And away we go...car seats and seat belts, of course. If you are bored, lonely or sad...borrow some children (your friends will love you) and go for a walk , blow bubbles or color...many exciting adventures await you.

Hunter the budding photographer. I'll let pretty much anyone borrow my kids for the day, especially if they want to shop (Kiersten) or put something together (Jared).

These are lovely photos. I'm so glad you shared them and reminded us to keep our childlike viewpoint.
