You are the exact mama I want to be and when my babies are older like this, I want them to come home to me and be as adventurous and silly and nostalgic as your little girl is. And of course, bring home their partners so I can knit them little hats. Oh my. I'm sure that day will be here before I know it! Many hugs sent down to you there. Your family is inspiring!<br />xo Julesa little crafty nesthttp://alittlecraftynest.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163144501473367922.post-41291165256138161462012-09-26T15:50:37.265-07:002012-09-26T15:50:37.265-07:00Speechless.

Your photos are always so lovely and intimate, sometimes I feel as if I am imposing!! But that just goes to show your talent in sharing your emotion--I should say channeling your emotion through your camera, it's truly exquisite. You do have such a beautiful family, and California--it calls, always, from your photos. Have you contacted the California Dptmt of tourism by the way? I think they could use your work!!!<br />XOMJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13238426502277628056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163144501473367922.post-46113318064574075522012-09-25T17:52:20.791-07:002012-09-25T17:52:20.791-07:00Hannah Rose?!
