Days 47-54
I've been pondering this challenge. Most of the people in the group where I am doing this are photographers or really love photography. I did it for a very different reason. I did it because I wanted to pick up my camera more and use it. I found myself feeling bad if the picture I took wasn't spectacular. The people on my group have amazing pictures and quite honestly I'm just not that interested in being a great photographer. I have decided that for me, this challenge is more of a year in pictures. Now there will be days that I do work on my photography skills. This challenge has definitely made me think very differently about what I shoot and how I shoot it. Overall though I want to go back in a year and see it....the good and the bad....through the eye of my camera. So here goes nothing....:)

Anya is going through a kissing phase. She loves to kiss and it has to be right on the lips. Don't think it will be a little peck either. She really lays it on you! I'm not complaining! |

During Oksana's first hospital stay she brought her pillow that she sleeps with every night. The pillow was made for her by the daughter of a friend of ours 4 1/2 years ago when Oksana first came home. Unfortunately it was lost at the hospital. She was devastated. I called the friend and her daughter immediately made Oksana another one. This is the day it came in the mail. She was so happy! |

These are the bracelets Oksana has to wear in the hospital. The first time I saw the fall risk one Larry and I joked that they must have called the geriatric floor and asked for a fall risk bracelet when she came in! |

Another day of visits. |

After that difficult visit at the hospital I desperately needed this. One of my favorite TV shows (Perception), an amazing chocolate cake that a friend made me, and a fire! |

Last year I did the one a day challenge and made it every single day. Some days the pictures weren't great, but it was more about the challenge than even the quality. I love your pics and I really think they are something you will treasure as the year goes on. Prayers for your family from SC
I always enjoy when you post your photo challenge pictures, but I think these are my favorites.
