Joy is…
turning 5.
On my family blog I have been posting a photographic countdown to Ulysses’ 5th birthday. I want to share this shot with you. I am also submitting it to the current iheartfaces challenge. Their current theme is “Joy”. You should submit a photo to them. It’s really easy and fun. Who knows? Maybe you’ll be the winner!
I love this photo. It’s not a technically “good” photo but it captures a certain Essence of Ulysses. I love that he is laughing and his eyes are closed. He does that when he really gets going. It really captures what he feels about turning 5. He’s very excited about it. He made this blue Lego “5″ and then showed it to me. I couldn’t pass up that photo op!
Also, thanks to everyone for their comments about inspiration and copying. I think we are all on the same page here. It’s nice to know I’m not crazy. Or maybe you’re all equally crazy. Either way it is good company!
