Love Thursday


This photo of me was taken by Braydon a couple of weeks ago while we were on a gorgeous strip of beach on Virgin Gorda. I was sitting on the sand watching my sandy salty sun-drenched boys run in and out of the water splashing in the waves. At first glance when I downloaded the vacation photos from our camera and saw this photo pop up on the computer screen I thought it was one to delete. But it somehow made me pause. And I looked at it for awhile. Somehow it drew me in. I didn't edit it in any way, just saved it as it was. I have come back to look at it numerous times since. I won't say too much about it -- just that I wish that the photo was taken by myself because I feel that it would be the perfect self-portrait. And so much of that portrait is about love for my boys and my husband and my life. Happy Love Thursday everyone near and far.
