Holding the Future

Great Grandfather (My Dad) and Great Grandson (My Grandson Conner)

Great Grandmother (My Mom) and Great Grandson Conner

And in today already walks tomorrow. 

 ~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge

We celebrated Christmas 2012 with the entire family on Friday 12-28-12 and I think all would agree that Mom, Dad, and Conner were the best presents that we received!

Hard to Say Goodbye

How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.

Conner at 3 weeks + 1 day
We had a wonderful visit with Junior, Whitney and Conner this weekend.
It was very hard to say goodbye.  Can't wait to see them again soon!

A Father's Love

A glimpse into

that moment

Forever captured

a Father's Love

As many of you know - I am not a "people pictures" person.  I try - but it just hasn't "clicked" (pardon the pun) for me.  But sometimes I get lucky.

That's the way I feel about this image .... very lucky to have captured this.

Taken with my iPhone - processed in Instagram - a moment in time captured.

My Son - the brand new Dad - with His Son - Conner

Life is so full of unpredictable beauty and strange surprises. Sometimes that beauty is too much for me to handle. Do you know that feeling? When something is just too beautiful? When someone says something or writes something or plays something that moves you to the point of tears, maybe even changes you.

 ― Mark Oliver Everett

My first Grandchild - I am moved to tears every time I see this amazing little person.  I had NO IDEA it would be this way.

What a Wonderful Blessing!
