Hi folks...

You might be wonder what is this all about, :D Well.. very simple...:P... This photo is taken while we were in England during one of the adventure of me and my little boy, we were in Rockingham castle walking around the garden, taking photos... then I saw my son running up to me with both his hands cover up, as if he cought bug or something, when he came up to me, he told me to shut my eyes, I did then he told me to open my eyes again, and this is what I saw, two daisy on camera cap! My little boy said "Mummy, this is for you..." I hold him tight and said "Thank you my son, that's very sweet of you!" then he said "I love you mummy..." My reply to him is "I love you too son..." and let me tell you this, it is very easy to draw tears off me... so right there and then, tears fill up my eyes... I hold him so tight. Wind is blowing and the view is so beautiful, time seem like frozen, but of cos this only take a few second, then my little boy run off again and left the daisy in my hand. I put them in my camera back for safe keeping.

Sometime in life, we are too busy to notice things that around us, things like beautiful sunrise, sunset, flowers on the road side, especially those that came from our love one. Can you imagine the little daisy that we called weed will give such a big impact to you especially when it came from your child with their love? Sometime in life, we just miss out so much, we are too busy to said "I love you" to our love one, we are too busy to even to give a hug to our love one... so my dear friends... here is a hug for all of you, :D **Hug**... and have a beautiful day ahead...

Hello Sweety
I love when little ones pick flowers.. they forget to get the stem its all about the flower! lol


Your notes are heart warming! I do like the way you framed this.. after reading your notes it totally makes a perfect photo

Tricia

ps..I realy like your font!

A very sweet memento from what was a very precious moment for you. You're right, these things are very special because they are the reason we exist.
Crisply captured with loveley colours and detail, nice use of the shallow DOF.
I'm not crazy about the title-in-the-frame but that's just a personal thing!

True words, Sweety... and let me start by giving you a hug too!
The picture accompanies the note well, and vice versa. A nice set, they are. The daisies are well captured too, especially if you're eyes were obscured by tears ;o).
Anyway, a nice post it is. TFS
