Portrait of a Family

Here are some people I love.

They tried to tell me that this particular photo session was just NOT happening.

I disagree.

I feel that this photo captures a moment in life beautifully.

Not just their life but my life and your life too.

All of those carefully posed masterpieces of immaculately groomed, cooperative children and seemingly un-frazzled, statuesque parents…

ALL FAKE!

Those portraits are admittedly nice to look at and hang on the wall-

but is that who we really are?

I love this picture because it tells me a story.

You can almost hear the things these people are saying to each other

and feel the thoughts of those disgruntled babies…

Not to mention the beaming ray of sunshine

smack-dab in the middle practically screaming out “All is well!”

This is life.

And, life is indeed beautiful!

Okay, so now let’s take one more look at this Portrait of a Family.
