i heart faces does weekly challenges and I've made it a goal to start doing them. Should be a year full of fun! I LOVED checking out some of the smiles. Seriously makes me smile.

I had these great intentions to get WONDERFUL pictures of my darling daughter. It was SO windy that it didn't work for me. I left the shoot feeling frustrated and about ready to give up the camera... well,.... for the day. But I got home and looked and got THIS!!! Possibly my favorite picture ever. It makes me laugh!

I laid on Eric's chest sobbing, soaking his shirt with my tears. The day was not easy. There was a lot of contention between us. Feeling helpless is not an easy feeling to deal with, when help is out of your grasp. We were both upset, not knowing what to do, where to turn, and who to talk to in order to get the help we need." - L. Marsing Her husband had just been diagnosed with testicular cancer.

They have a wonderful curiosity, a love of life and big eyes full of wonder. What I wouldn't give to put myself in their shoes and really appreciate life for what it is. Toes, for the way they're shaped to support my body. The joy I can get from just being outside in a wonderful body in a wonderful world. This wonderful competition is over at iheartfaces.com   There's a ton of talent over there! Check it out.
