Week 18 - We Are Family


This week's theme at I Heart Faces is We Are Family. It took me no time at all to decide on a photo that fit this theme perfectly. In November of 2006 we traveled to China to bring our baby girl home. She was just 7 months at the time, a wee little one. One day while lounging together in our hotel room I snapped our first family photo, a self-portrait of the three of us. I love this picture because of how our daughter is gently reaching over to touch me, making sure that I am still close by. It is a very tender moment that I am so happy I preserved on film. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.


If you get the chance, please head on over to the I Hear Faces website and look at some of the other entries.
