It hit in the middle of the quarter-final match of the Little League Tournament last night…Thank goodness for sunglasses cuz the parents all around me probably would have wondered what the hell my problem was. There was a Grandfather at the game. The same Grandfather that had been at every game all season long. He [...]

This one is for Pop. My Father-in-Law, used to buy and grow an amaryllis bulb every Christmas season.

I went to school this afternoon to get head shots of the kids in David’s class. After I had completed taking the pictures, I was heading to the reading literacy classroom to get pics of the three kids that were not in class at that time. As I walked across the courtyard I saw one [...]

One year ago, right this minute, I was sitting in my office at home working on the yearbook for David’s school. I had woke up that day feeling pretty tough. David was getting over a stomach bug so I assumed I was coming down with it. I did manage to drive across town to spend [...]
