Love Thursday: May 15, 2008

I don't know about you guys, but I'm still basking in the Mother's Day afterglow.

Happy Love Thursday, everyone.  Please leave your links of love in the comments section -- and in honour of Mother's Day, feel free to include images of your mom, your kids, your grandmother, a friend who's a great mom, someone married to a mom, someone who at one point in his/her life had a mom, someone who can spell "MOM" ...

 ... and be sure to check out the amazing Mom photographs left by *VWC Photography* and PhotoMom86 for inspiration!

What a beautiful picture of the two of you! Alas, the camera didn't even come out at all on Mother's Day this year in this house.

This is a shot of my son on the receiving end of some love from the dog. It is his expression that I love. I bet when he is 16 and I am trying to give him a peck on the cheek I might get the same reaction.

Great photo! That can't be a self portrait can it??? It's fabulous! So much LOVE!

Although I'm a Mommy now, the first person I think of on mother's day is my own mother! I seriously need to take more portraits of her! I dug this one up from last year and it's just a snapshot. Sorry Umma!

What a smile on your little girl! She is obviously NOT camera shy, and she obviously gets a lot of love :)

Here's my shot of love I found in nature -

Mother's Day glow indeed! Gorgeous!

This week I've opened my blog to a guest blogger, Wanderlust Scarlett of From the Shores of Introspect and Retrospect, and she has written a wonderfully inspirational piece entitled "The Rhythm of the Heart":

I did something a little different this week for Love Thursday and wrote about learning to love the creative process:

Such amazing pictures. I'm getting teary - or maybe that is just the pregnancy induced heartburn.

My family and I celebrated the memory of our mother's life by giving her a balloon release and attaching notes to the them (things we wanted to say to her) for Mother's Day. This is a little photo slide with pictures from that day.
