The Moment:
Friday, February 12th  
7:28 am
The sun was rising and coming through our yard showing off the ice covered branches.  It was so breathtaking and I desperately wanted to photograph it.  Being in my flannel pajamas with two kids crying for breakfast I could only step onto our screen porch and shoot from there.  Hard to believe that I spent many a summer days on that swing with both of my little ones.  It seems so far away but this picture reminds me that it is still there waiting for us.

So, so lovely and peaceful! It won't be long before you're back in that swing with your sweet babes listening to the sounds of summer...
