Default 9/365 ~ A Kids Life

Okay... Just wanted to post this before I head out to breakfast and to the Ohana Festival at the Japanese Cultural Center with my family. I hope everyone has had a wonderful weekend.

9/365 ~ A Kids Life
No worries... no deadlines...no stress,
Oh to be a kid again
I love how they live in the moment
I've got lots to learn from my kids.
9/365 ~ A Kids Life

We went to the Ho'omaluhia Botanical Gardens yesterday... lots and lots of pictures

In the distance...

There's nothing more intoxicating than a child's smile, and should we be able to bottle and sell your sons, we would make a fortune, excellent selection Nikki

That 1st shot is a real beauty Nikki. We sing a song her in church:

Joy, joy, my heart is full of joy
The Saviour dear is ever near
That's the reason why my heart is full of joy.

The first shot took me back to that verse. May all your hearts always be full of joy. Wonderful Nikki. Thanks. PAUL

Fabulous! Nikki I love them all, but the first 2 are my faves. Young Connor seems to be becoming a great photographer I see, as well as a great little model!
