Droplet
Laval, QC, August 2009
Our youngest son has many fine qualities that would make any parent proud. Neatness isn't one of them. When Noah and food converge on the same spot in the space-time continuum, gravity usually ends up victorious.
Thankfully, it occasionally makes for an interestingly spontaneous moment with the camera.
For what it's worth, I'm perfectly fine with the occasional spill. With a soul as sweet as his, I'm good with the inevitable cleanups and laundry that ensue. Even the ring of chocolate around his mouth when he eats M&Ms is endearing.
Your turn: I know you've got some red in ya. Click here to dive in. And if you've already shared, don't be shy to share again.
I'm not sure what's spilt, here, but the way the light hits it is beautiful. I am trying to imagine the scene where a spill occurs, and instead of immediately sopping up the mess, you say, "Don't move... let me get my camera!" and it results in this tranquil shot.
ReplyDeleteoh thank GOD I thought it was blood.
ReplyDeleteAnd, it is breathtaking.
You do know that vampires cry blood,right?
ReplyDeletePerhaps you should keep the boy out of the sunlight.

ReplyDeleteOh, and yes as a matter of fact I do have a bit o' red for today's offering. A bit larger than a drop of... whatever that is.
