One Beautiful Thing ~ seventeen


I quickly captured this while sharing a hot chocolate with a dear friend in a favourite cafe. They make it with real melted dark chocolate. Oh my soul...it is decadent.

I never did see his face, but I didn't need to.... all of my maternal synapses were firing off madly in all directions. I mean, look at those chubby little dimpled fingers! And the cars on his little shoes? And the soft folds of his pant leg and stripy socks. Oh.

I was momentarily suspended in some kind of baby nirvana. It was a sweet moment, and I'm glad I had my camera with me. A reminder to carry it with me always...everywhere.

    This is such a beautiful photo Jaime! And those little boots and dimpled hands are indeed very sweet.

    Although I must admit, it does not put me into 'baby nirvana', it puts me more into a reminder of how much work babies are! LOL! I guess it's all in our perspective! ;)

    Happy Weekend my friend!
