Bundles of Love


Last weekend I headed back to Chicago for some fun. What a great trip...old friends, old haunts, new memories...


While I was there I spent an entire afternoon with Amy (Hiniker) Robert and her two, sweet 4 mo. old bundles of love- Carolyn and Dylan. It is amazing to watch your friends become parents. Something within me just glowed as I watched Amy, who I have known my whole life, be such an incredible mother. I brought my camera and we had some fun taking photos, here is one of my favorites. It is easy to fall head over heals in love with her twins...

I wish you a year of milk and honey






I know this may just be a picture of a picture, but this is not any ordinary picture of a girl. This is Florence, she is from a small village in Rwanda and we have cooresponded for about a year now. We have never met, but hope to someday! She just sent me this photo and with it a note that said, "I wish you a year of milk and honey." Does life get any more pure? I send her and her family so much love and took this photo of her photo because she is on my mind today... "Hi Florence, may God always bless you!"

April Afternoon...



Bill's co-worker, Gina, grows these beautiful orchids in her garden and gave us a few to brighten up an April afternoon. I couldn't help but bring them out into the sun today and capture all their glory! I am definately ready for Spring!

Thank you so much, Gina. They are truly beautiful!
