I spend so much trying to get the perfect shot of my kids – “turn this way! Stand still! Get closer to your sister! Smile for godsakes! Stop fidgeting! Act like you actually like each other! Stop picking your nose!”
But the best shots just happen when you let life happen. When this photo downloaded to my computer and came up on the screen, I laughed out loud. THIS picture THIS moment – THESE are my kids..
..Astrid being silly, goofy, and trying to make us laugh
..Esther dancing like nobody’s watching
..Eloise wondering how it is possible she is related to these people

Love that movement you captured there!
Isn’t it amazing when you ‘see’ your kids in a picture?
Great pic

P.S. You are beautiful, even in a robe and hat. If only I was so lucky!
By The Way, I meant to type LIFT my day, not LIFE my day. But I am sure you knew that, you are brilliant, that is why I like reading your blog..But you knew that too, right?
Love love love it!
