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.

And those big beautiful hazel eyes where I can't ever figure out what color they are. I know he's doing something mischievous. Look at that sparkle in his eyes... definitely mischievous. That's what makes him a little touch of sunshine. There's some beautiful backlighting in some of the photos over at iheartfaces.com.  Go be inspired.
