MY GRANDSON FEELING THE JOY



While we try to teach our children all about life,
Our children teach us what life is all about.
~Angela Schwindt






I've looked at this photo
several times since I
took it at the end of June.

Mackenzie is behind him
catching bubbles.

Somehow I caught him as
he was jumping with joy
at catching the bubbles.

I guess at 8-years-old you can still find yourself having fun chasing bubbles.  I photographed my other grandson one time in the air.  Well several times but I particularly like this photo of him.  He was only 5 I think and wanted to go to the trail where the sun  was (long story)...



And these two guys pictured above - here they are when Hunt was 4 or so and Cayden was 7 months.  They have always been best buddies since then.




Another younger photo of them.






They don't get to see each other much anymore because of their schedules and different summer vacation plans.  They both miss the other one a lot and I hope to get them together in the next few weeks.

That quote is so perfect for that photograph! The other photos are giving me a melancholy type of feeling because they've grown up so fast...and that means we're growing older so fast...but they are priceless photos to have!

Cayden looks like he is getting taller. I remember when Mac was taller. You are lucky to have so many beautiful grand children.
