angel ... MY angel ...

When i saw this week's challenge theme at Inspiration Avenue, i just had to participate. the challenge themed "angel" by Tammy of Art & Inspirations coincided perfectly with an image i had taken. mind you it is nothing arty, but i thought it would make a wonderful entry to this week's challenge.

this is Maia and Me ...


i love this image so much ... even if it was just an impromptu thing with the i-phone. Maia was sleeping on the bed and i was just smelling her sweet breath (yup, i like to do that) when i decided to whip out the phone cam to capture some shots of me and her sleeping together... her for real, me pretending ;) and of course with a few clicks of the buttons from one of those i-phone apps, wallah!! ahhh ... technology!


i think it is also a good time to mention that Inspiration Avenue is having their 2nd Art Charity Auction for Angel Faces! for more info please go here. it runs from 1-7th May and you will get to bid on some fabulous art pieces by the ladies, where ALL the proceeds will go to Angel Faces :)

Ohhhh.....so precious. I so remember those special moments with my son. He's 6'5 now and well cuddling it out of the question! Relish in it they grow up so fast.

This is such a darling photo, Luthien. Aren't you clever. Such sweet breath little ones have. I always loved my daughters sweet breath, too.
Hugs to you,

I feel this is beautiful Art. Whenever there is love and creation together it is the best art. What a great piece to have because as you know she will grow and those precious moments become even more special. Wonderful for this week's theme!

Oh so beautiful- and how can you think of this as NOT art- it's a wonderful portrait of mother and child and you've captured such a depth of emotion and love. BEAUTIFUL!

What a fab and atmostpheric photo - one to treasure when she's all grown up! Who'd have thought an i-phone could create such beautiful art (in your hands, obviously it can!) Maia is truly a little angel :) xox

Ahhh, of course your mind would go straight to this wonderful little princess when you hear the word "angel"! She is truly a gift from the angels, and an angel herself. This picture is priceless...I love it! The sepia tones and softness are beautiful.

And what a beautiful little Angel she is, a wonderful shot to treasure for the future! x
