i want to be
two
~~
being
two
means napping in the afternoon
and
being asked why it wasn't longer
silly goose
::
spilling a bucket of dinosaurs all over the floor and laughing about it
::
feeding winnie the pooh "make believe" honey found in my coat pocket
throwing glitter filled egg shaped bouncy balls down the hardwood floor hallways
and
laughing hysterically while they bounce in crazy directions
::
wearing one flip flop
::
making your hands disappear behind your back
while saying
abra cadabra
dancing in sunglasses without caring who's watching or laughing
::
playing chutes and ladders
::
and
saying good-bye to a fly
while trying to understand why they're supposed to live outside
this was a very impromptu photo shoot with two year old twins
belonging to friends of my hubby
*
hopefully there will be a next time
outside

oh to be two....but even at 52 I seem to be doing all the same things...so LIFE IS GOOD!
Just to watch them brings such joy. Wonderful series of photos here!
oh yes, the world of two year olds. adorable shots!! so very sweet
Awesome! Your work is such an "upper"--I'm thanking our understanding Lord who guided me to your blog.
impromptu is delightful ... I like that little band aid hiding on the finger
Very sweet shots!
Beautiful pictures... and the questions you have asked are so childlike in their innocence
Beautiful beautiful photos and words. Love the first "eyes windows to the soul" shot. I was about to say it's so sad that adults lose that pure innocence and wonderful way of viewing the world. But you still have it...
Beautiful photos, they are so cute.......right now being 2 sounds absolutely wonderful...Hugs
Too cute...and double. What gets better than that?
Lets not forget having cookies and not worrying about calories! Great pictures and what a fun day.
Adorable twins and great photos! Ah Yes ! To be two again....nah! I like where I am at! LOL!
Hugs

I love how you describe being two. what a world filled with wonder. How sad that we lose that as we get older.
how about we create a "let's be 2" day?
and then we just play and let our hair down ;)
Wonderful photos and musings...when did life get so complicated? Kindergarten, I guess.
I'm in luv with these photos, but especially with the words. You really see/hear what's going on around you.
Was it your house where they were playing with the bouncy balls? To say they bounce in crazy directions is an understatement.
Did you ever get the honey out of your pocket?

poetry in motion ..the life of a 2 year old..these are lovely beth
What an extraordinary tribute to being 2. Beautiful images!!!
Lovely shots perfectly capturing what it means to be two.
oh gosh, beth, that first shot is absolutely stunning! of course, the rest are wonderful as well!
Yes. Not only can you do all that, everyone around you is just fine with it. I'm with Claire. We need a Let's Be 2 day.
:) Debi
Such great shots, love those eyes in the first photo!
Count me in for Let's Be 2 day, it would be great to run around without my knees hurting for a change...
nicely done. i always wish someone would tell me to go take a nap every day!!
Very beautiful two year olds. Nice post and I like the words along the way.
Haven't seen any of your portraits in a long while. These are enchanting!
And all that energy, so much energy! Love this post, and these photos are just beautiful!
just such a lovely set of images.... adorable...
and i love your being "2" thoughts... sooo sweet...
♥ happy monday....♥ kim
Beautiful eyes and beautiful guys. The shots show the nature of the children so well.
Wow, those are amazingly beautiful eyes. Beautiful shots Beth :-)
p.s my typepad blog is gone, I have returned to blogger!
doubly cute...and those eyes!...Oh My!
The only thing wrong with being two is that they don't know how good they've got it....great thought, and I love the sparkle you caught in the little guy's eyes...how DID you do it??
Great portraits! But why do you want to be two? Do those things now, at your own age, and you'll appreciate them more :-)
Beautful shots of the twins!
So enjoyed this post!
Thank you, Beth.
Margie :)
This post captures everything magic about that age!
oh the joys of a 2 year old. so cute.
So special to have the opportunity to share time with little ones. What a delight! And laughing hysterically is the very best.
so much goodness here... i love coming by for a visit and i love how fresh you keep everything!
love everything you do!
xoxo
"I wanna be 2 too"....she cried petulantly after she read this (she would even settle for 3 or 4 as long as a nap and bouncy ball were a part of the deal- the fly she could do without!)! Beautiful pics Beth!
Oh why didn't think of this when I had Alex my friends kid over last saturday. Love to be two again and act silly and no one would say anything about it....I can tell you all had fun.
great photos... love the eyes in the first one
