They not only hold my hands, but they hold my heart for all of time. My son. My daughter.
Two unique beings created from love and unconditionally loved by me. They are bits of me and bits of my husband and bits of their ancestors. And they bring their own individual traits into this world.
I see in them the past, the present, and the future. It is with tremendous pride I call them my children. Beauties, both, in every way.
(Self-Portrait Challenge Theme: September is ‘with someone‘ month - that means you must include someone else in your self portrait. Someone meaningful to your life or to the moment or to a specific event that you wish to document.
Guidelines: 1. each week in the month use a different person in your self portait. 2. either talk about that person or illustrate in the photograph why you have included them and how they are meaningful.)

I love how your shots are always so mysterious, yet they tell a story nontheless.
Nice new look on the blog. Is this Beta, because up till now i have had nothing but trouble with it?
I love seeing families that love each other. What a great photo!!
Love the new blog look too! Your picture is so great - our hands speak volumes about us.
This is so symbolic of the tight connection and bond of children and mother.
Great job.
That's a beautiful photo!
This is a very beautiful photo. I loved it.
We always hold on to those we love, even when they're gone. Connections will never die.
Hugs,

I think that pictures of hands are so telling and beautiful.
Beautiful picture and words.
That is a wonderfully written tribute to your children. I am tearing up ... pass the hankie.
This is beautiful! I am trying to think what it will be like when my children are all grown... *tear* that will be so weird to me... I love having them so cuddly and little.

Hands speak volumes to me anyway--as a very kinesthetic person. Your image captured the grip--the strength of the family bonds. Thanks so much for posting this image!
