I could never say no to either of those faces. Truth.

They don’t look nearly as irresistible when they’re throwing tantrums. ;)

So cute. My kids pick flowers for me all the time. I think I love how much they are excited about it more than the flowers.

Exactly. And the fact that they’re free.

Yesterday my daughter brought me a dried up sow bug with a long cobweb stuck to it’s dried up little legs. (She got that from INSIDE the house. Gross.) I wish she’d just pick me flowers like your sweet little munchkins. Maybe I’ll show her these pictures and it will fill her head with ideas.
I love how the bouquet partially covers your son’s face. It’s quite cute and quite artistic. And something about his fist, full of stems, is soooo ‘little boy’. Know what I mean?
Your daughter’s smile is incredibly sweet. I think I see a dimple?

Look at these gorgeous pictures! I think it is a requirement of some sort to be a gifted photographer when you’re a great blogger! I so need LOTS of practice to get your level, Jill! :)

I hate it when I can’t remember if I’ve already commented. I saw this earlier and thought to myself – oh her kids are too cute for words!

And I looked for your article in that online mag, but couldn’t find it! Could you post a direct link?!
