What is it about an old photograph that stirs such deep emotions?  I look at this photograph my father took of me and I am overwhelmed with love for him and for my eldest daughter - because he took a moment to capture this delightful scene and because I see her staring back at me.

Today I am falling for this; getting lost in beauty here; would love all of these; and thinking she is magic.

Have a lovely day friends...

Adorable! Completely captures childhood innocence, and anyone who ever ate pb&j as a kid has had that moment.

Oh what a gorgeous photograph - what a wonderful thing to have. I love the pictures my parents took of me as a toddler for the yellowed square seventies photographs and the dirty faces and retro wallpaper.

I love the peak at your younger self. Most of all, I love the peak at your father's love for you. He must also have been a photographer. Is he where your own artistic sense come from?
