Alison of Mama Wants This and Galit of These Little Waves are hosting a wonderful link-up called Moments Captured. This is what they asked us to do capture a moment or someone you love in words and pictures and share them.
I really loved this idea. When I first read about it last week, I knew exactly which picture I wanted to use. I had just taken it during our family reunion at Mount Magazine.
It was such fun to select the words that describe JDaniel at three and a half.
They will have their link-up open all week. I would love to see what you come up with.
Reminder: My Giving Others Christmas Challenge link is open and will be open all month. I hope you will think about joining it. All you have to do is find a way to give others Christmas and share what you have done in a post.

If I did one on my 4yo son, iPad and robots would be on there too. That picture really portrays him as an observer of all things. Beautiful! 🙂

Great photo xxx

Janie says
perfect capture of your keen observer! =)
Christine @ Quasi Agitato says
BEAUTIFUL picture. I see why they call it Mount Magazine. It’s fit for a glossy magazine, that’s for sure. I thought that was your home and I was totally drooling with jealousy.
I am also finding it funny how often iPad turns up in these pictures. Apple should be paying all of you!
euregirlsandboys says
What a beautiful picture! I forgot to put that my boy’s a snuggler on his 🙂
Tina Peterson says
What a great picture. I love how he just sat down to quietly observe his surroundings. =D
