A Glimpse at Spring l my life
March 10, 2010
It was a weary spirit, teething-baby kind of day.
But this afternoon there were a few hours of smiles and sparkly eyes and dirty fingernails.
Children can stretch our endurance. Children are also the ones who teach us about finding joy.
[The flower beds and Ian both got their first taste of spring clean-up.]
Zachary has been playing outside every day since it’s warmed up. The kitty we added to our family a few weeks ago is redeeming itself. I guess I can put up with it rubbing itself against my legs while I hang out laundry since it has become the companion Zachary needed to feel safe playing outside alone.
Two Zachary quotes from last week:
“Daddy, look! Look! The sky is so BLUE! I am AMAZED!!!!”
Yesterday he picked 3 dandelions and brought them in for me. I was thrilled there were actually flowers growing in our yard, and because he picked flowers for me on his own initiative. Once I finished gushing over them he wondered, “Are you going to fry them up for supper?”

I stumbled across your Facebook page and love your style! The pictures are not overly edited. Just wondering which lens you use the most? Also which body? Thanks!

Thanks, Melissa! I shoot Canon and use the 40D body. I think the 24-70 is my most used all-around lens. When I was getting started, someone told me to save up until I could afford L series lenses, I would recommend the same. If you want a great little lens for not much money, start with the 50mm f/1.8. I started out with the 35(?)-125mm f/3.5-5.6. Obviously not ideal–especially not for low light situations, but I still think it’s a good starter lens, and much better than the wide angle lenses that come with most starter kits. Hope this helps.
