first s'more

Let's start the week off being luscious and joyful. I want to see fingers licked clean and glorious mess, a slurping of life. Hands gotten dirty and all the better for it. I want to see souls big and little lost in one of those perfect, unguarded moments -- not just to do with food, but with all kinds of tasting and sensing and revelling in the world. Go.

Oh, wow - this is just glorious. The unfettered enthusiasm of childhood so achingly captured. This is one of the things I mourn most as I watch my children grow slightly more self-conscious (not that much, they are still 4 and 6). It is such a joy to watch children throw themselves into experience without a single backward look. We really do have a lot to learn.

I'm not sure if this counts and forgive me if it doesn't. My son takes such wonderful candids.

We've been 'raising' monarch butterflies since July. I can't stop taking shots of them, so I asked my boys who wanted to have their photo taken with a butterfly on their nose. This is the sequence I got - love the first and last shots the best :)
