Mother's Day, part II...

My son was taking photos all day long Sunday, too. It is at this point I digress and offer sincere apologies to all my friends in grade school, high school, college, heck life, that have stood and waited while I got my fill of taking photos. I have learned to put the camera down (yes I have, don’t argue!) but it is all so new to him and every step offers something new to capture and keep. I now know what you all felt and I am so sorry.

I am also so proud of this kid! (And happy that my husband’s iPhone had a signal so that he could stay busy while we made him wait, endlessly.) My kid has a pretty good eye and takes some great photos. He has also decided he needs to hijack another post on my blog. Here are the images he wanted to show off. (I want to, too.) These are straight from his camera, unedited and unenhanced. Pretty awesome, right?

(The one of him is mine, but you probably figured that out already.)

A walk in the park...

Sunday was Mother’s Day and I had the best time. My son made me breakfast (Eggo blueberry waffles, strawberries and iced tea), we went to mass, then we took a camera safari around a lovely state park (my husband almost made it without saying something about having to wait for us as we took photo after photo), ending with dinner out at one of our favorite Mexican restaurants. It was lovely and I did take a lot of photos. How could I resist? The day was perfect: 70 degrees, slightly overcast with very little wind and a sea of flowers and statues and views, Oh My! I used restraint though and I am only posting a ‘few’ of my favorites. Few: adjective- not many but more than one. See it is a few!

Oh and I had to put in an image of my present from my son: a purple flower bracelet! So many of my favorite things rolled into one. I love being a Mom and I am so lucky to be a Mom to this one of a kind, sweet, smart, crazy adorable boy. Yes I am biased but I am also correct. So there! May 8th
