A big part of being me is being a Mum to three pretty terrific kids. Yesterday I played nurse to one sicky chicky, and well what good Mum doesn't stop to take a few pictures of their kids while they are sick. Ha!
This is Lilia gymnast extraordinaire, cutie patootie, all around good kid and my youngest and only girl.
LOVE this photo, but I may be a bit biased. :D I did a little photoshopping to this picture with levels to brighten it up a bit( it was a little underexposed) and then I put an optikverve filter(LOVE them) on it to create the black and white.
CC always welcome and THANKS for looking.

I think photos that tell stories are some of the most meaningful ones. This will be special to you for years to come, very sweet. Thank you for sharing.

This is precious. I love those filters. I think you used my favorite one (reminiscing). I too take pictures of my little ones while sick. Give her lots of hugs.
