I am not one who makes New Year's resolutions. Only 5% of people succeed with their resolutions, and I don't intend to set myself up for failure at the start of a new year. However, I have set a couple of goals for myself to try to attain this year. One of which is to learn more about photography and hopefully improve, but also to start sharing my passion with my kids, even if it means sharing my camera. A while back, GiGi asked me why I take so many pictures. (Hhmmm, I wonder why she thinks that???) Instead of trying to explain it, we borrowed Hubby's truck one evening, ventured out into the country, pulled over on the side of a road, and watched the sunset while standing in the back of the black Chevy. Her reaction, "Mommy, MOMMY! look, look, LOOK!, the sun is making colors and is going down." I then knelt down placing my camera strap around GiGi's neck and told her to start snapping. She was so proud of herself, but even prouder when she saw this on the computer...
I think she is one step closer to understanding now.

We give our kids so much of ourselves throughout their lives, but when we can pass our passion on to them, it is truly special.
That is so precious! Great picture GiGi! It really is!
