why you should always have your camera with you...

so

I'm driving down the road the other day

when the school bus in front of me starts rocking with kids

trying to get me to wave back to them

and

of course I did

~~

then

at a traffic light

I grabbed my little camera and gave them a "thumbs up" sign

and

made them all laugh

while I took their photo

even better

at the next traffic light I ended up right beside them

and

now I'm totally in love with

these kids

those faces

the squished pig nose

the tongue sticking out

and

their ability to just love life

~~

what they will never know

is how special they made my day

also....this just in...my friend mary beth {artist extraordinaire} still has a few spots left in her class that she'll be

teaching at valley ridge in september....come on...don't you want to come to wisconsin and see all it's beauty in the

fall
