Quiet time.....

When the green woods laugh with the voice of joy,
And the dimpling stream runs laughing by;
When the air does laugh with our merry wit,
And the green hill laughs with the noise of it;

When the meadows laugh with lively green,
And the grasshopper laughs in the merry scene;
When Mary and Susan and Emily
With their sweet round mouths sing 'Ha ha he!'

When the painted birds laugh in the shade,
Where our table with cherries and nuts is spread:
Come live, and be merry, and join with me,
To sing the sweet chorus of 'Ha ha he!'

~William Blake, from Songs of Innocence

Beautiful shot TM, Emma is looking so grown up these days. I hope she's feeling better....those pictures below look just awful.

I'm also sorry to hear about Aunt Betty. She was a lovely woman, I'm glad to have had the chance to meet her.

Can't wait to see you soon! Miss you!

You have done it again. Gosh, you can take the most beautiful of photos. You do have a beautiful subject, however!

How is Emma Sage doing? Thinking of her...

How do you decide which pictures to frame? They are all so beautiful.
We missed you at Scotty's graduation but enjoyed seeing Otto and Emma
Hope to see you on the 5th.
