and some great friends watched Ruslana so we could enjoy ourselves.

A 'daddy flower' pedal she wanted to save

she looks so grown up in this picture. 

she picked this for me and wanted to put it in water for me

we saw a bunch of hearts here and there

It was certainly a lovely walk with my little lovely.

A Necklace-A-Day in May

So I thought it might be a fun venture. A necklace-a-day in May. I have so many of them, I don't wear them nearly enough. So everyday in this month, I will wear a necklace. Make myself wear a necklace. And then post a picture of it. It might be fun to see a series at the end of May. Enjoy.

(I already didn't post yesterdays, so today there will be two)

welcome baby Bella

What a long and winding road to bring beautiful Bella to this world. 

After all that was involved from the first contraction to the ride home back to DE, Bella is as beautiful as can be. It was such a joy meeting this family.  Enjoy!

Cealy

Here is a sneak from my shoot over the weekend with Cealy. She is a great little girl, full of energy and hilarious stories and explanations of life. Such a sweetheart. Enjoy!
