Yesterday Sara captured something classically beautiful. Who doesn't love a beautiful blond haired little girl? Everyone (myself included) is drawn to pictures of beautiful things. But, as my daughter reminded me this morning the things we usually find "ugly" or "offensive" can be beautiful as well.
Our lawn hadn't been mowed yet this season and when my almost four year old opened her blinds this morning she squealed with delight.
"Mommy look at all those beautiful flowers. This whole place is filled with them."

I don't think a yard filled with dandelions is classically beautiful like Sara's daughter but I do think the flowers serves as an ample tie-in.
WINNER, WINNER, CHICKEN DINNER
Before I announce this weeks winner of Wordless Wednesday (or Talkless Thursday as the case may be) I should share the tie in and the story behind the photo... it's my job.
Click here for the picture.
My tie in was "sleeping like a log". Except my girl wasn't sleeping. She was pretending to sleep Easter morning so I could take a picture of her amidst her "mouse" friends.
The winner this week is... Sharon. Great guess Sharon. You were correct (not that that matters). Contact us at 3chicks1dudephoto@gmail.com and we'll make the necessary arrangements.
Find the beauty around you.

I have always felt that many "weeds" are really just strikingly beautiful flowers, but their beauty is visible only to those of us with the gift of special eyesight...
ReplyDelete@ Mamalu - Invent the special eye glasses that makes us all see this way and Round Up is in BIG trouble.
ReplyDeleteA huge field of dandelions is a beautiful sight, I just wish when my daughter picks them for me they would stay and not turn to "fly away baby fairies" that seed themselves in the lawn we pay to keep "green".
@ Brandoo - Beautiful boca baby ! You want the Nifty Fifty back anytime soon?
