Well, it's been a while since my last post. As a youth minister, you can't always do your hobbies when you want. The last month has had some hard times with students.

However, This last weekend was my daughters birthday. It was a great joy to spend one solid day with the focus on my family.

I took this shot as Miriam was thinking about her birthday wish.


It's not the best technical shot and I know it could be cropped some. I just enjoyed the look on Miriam's face. It's a reminder me that it's OK to wish.

I hope you all remember it's OK to wish and to dream.

peace.

    Very nice Johno thumb.gifthumb.gif


    I hope your darling little girl had a very special day. I know Dad focusing on her for the day had to be a big treat for her :):

    Relish these moments, they pass in the wink of an eye ne_nau.gif Before you know it, she'll be driving and you and your wife will be a much smaller part of her life :cry But, you'll still have these precious memories to look back on iloveyou.gif


    Thanks for sharing,

    nice shot, johno. I had been wondering about you lately. You must have gotten caught, like so many, in the Ides of March. This year it is a slow mover. Seems to still be here in April.

    Happy birthday to your daughter! I remember back when that wish thing was so important. Now I can just pick one, I have many. She looks very serious in her decision.

    A lovely child, a wonderful photograph. A grand occasion.

    Thanks Ginger. It's nice to know someone was thinking about me :D I am hoping for a chance to slow down soon. This weekend I will be speaking at a youth festival in Canada this weekend... I hope to take some shots while I am there. I might get one good shot to share. Keep your fingers crossed rolleyes1.gif

    Peace.
