I realized what kind of child Sissy was going to be after finding her nose to nose with a garter snake when she was only two years old. I knew then she was definitely going to be an animal lover.


The greatest moments I've had as a mother has been to watch my children share their love and compassion.


When I look at these photos, the chaos of the world is light years from my mind.


Its amazing to watch her passion grow.


When I see the curiosity, I become curious too.

Her excitement is contagious...

...and so is her love.

As the creatures around her grow and change into something beautiful, she watches in amazement and wonder...all the while... I am watching her...

  3. Thank you all so much for your lovely comments!

    I am not a professional photographer just a picture junky. When I was in high school I chose to buy my first camera instead of buying a class ring. It was the best investment I have ever made. I try to have my camera on me at all times. The family just loves it when I pull out the camera! lol
