Just playing...

I know these are heavy on the post-processing. Just trying a few different things.
Gwyneth was so mad at us for sticking her in that window...and I don't blame her!
(The ledge was about 3 inches deep and at eye level. Aunt Heidi was standing guard the entire time though.)


This little lady is a conundrum to me. I never feel I really know and understand her. I can’t predict her reactions to the world around her like I can with her brothers. She is sassy and demanding, yet at the same time timid and insecure. She needs me to hold her at all times, but absolutely hates any other show of affection and will outright refuse a kiss or hug. She always seems so unsure of my love for her and panics if I show affection to anyone else. I see an uncertainty inside of her that I want to help her overcome, but I’m not quite sure how. I pray every day that my love for her will be a mirror of the love God has for her and that I will be worthy of this fresh soul that has been entrusted to me for such a short time.

oh, so sweeet! I've been wanting to find a window alot like that, didn't even realize it's right in the backyard of Heidi's! Just remember most people can't figure out their two year olds, it's not uncommon. :) And once you figure them out, they grow older and change a bit!You're a good mommy and I have no doubt she'll grow wonderfully!
