My favorite photo right now is the one I took of my son two days ago, looking out the third floor window in our state capital. It was raining and we were at an Assembly Committee Hearing with other Families to support BCBA's (for an Autism Insurance Mandate)in Wisconsin. That picture says so much.

My fav right now was taken at midnight, so the light isn't great. I went to check on my kids before I went to bed for the night, and found that my 3 year old had climbed into bed with the 8 year old, and they were snuggled up together asleep.

Right now my favorite photo is one of my three kids next to a tractor, while at the pumpkin patch last year. Just something about their eyes in that photo captivates me every time I see it (on a layout on my wall). Makes me wish I could keep them little for just a bit longer!

My current favorite photo is of my 16 year old son-he had his braces removed this past Monday and I took a series of photos with him celebrating his newfound freedom with his great new smile.

My current favorite photo is one of Big Sur, CA. I took it a couple years ago, but I recently rediscovered it. It is a reminder of a perfect day.

I don't have a favorite photo of the moment.... yet. My family of 5 (3 teens plus dh and I) just settled into a log cabin in the woods outside Branson, MO, and I cannot wait for the sun to come out so we can take some amazing photos of this place. I will have many favorites a week from now....

My favorite photo right now is one of my two daughters. My youngest is 4 months old, so it is one of the first pictures where they are actually both looking at me and smiling!

My current favorite photo is one of me with my two children. It is so hard to get photos of me with my children unless I set up the tripod! I must do it more often!

My current favorite photo is of my two daughters standing in our front yard.
My oldest has a look of a carefree happiness across her face while her younger sister has a look of "I will follow you anywhere". I enlarged this photo and printed it in black and white. Love this picture!!

My favorite photo lately is a photo of my nephew, feeling up the picture with his shining grin and beautiful eyes. I love to put him in the center every once in a while when I come to visit.

My current favorite picture is one that was shot just last week. The weather out here is finally getting better, and our daughter could play in our backyard for the very first time (last summer she hadn't taken her first steps yet). She so enjoyed it and so did I.
