  3. I don't know if I was lucky or unlucky to have 3 dads in my life. Mom married 3 times you see. What is worse is that they are gone..passed on.

    What I do have is my Love who is beyond expectations of a father to our 4 kids...

    Love old photos....this one is sweet!

  9. You are spoiled and lucky, and you probably already know this, speaking from experience, I'm sure your dad just LOVES it when you call him for some help.
    Enjoy

  21. What a beautiful picture and post Beth. It reminds me that pictures (and who would know this better than you) are time machines...

    Photographs are magic. Freezing time ~ everyday moments ~ so everyone can share them while life overlaps.

    Equally, perhaps even more wonderful, they hold the memories and love we can't reach out and touch any longer.

    Camera, photograph, photographer.

    Compose the invisible frame, understand the light, coax the shadow. See and capture what matters and freeze it forever, in heart and in history.

    Your photographs hold time and life beautifully Beth & I always enjoy seeing what you've caught in the orb of your lens....

  23. Absolutely beautiful!! My baby girl and her daddy get to play on the beach for the first time this summer and I can't wait to take photos of it!! How lucky you are to still have your dad with you. There's not a day that goes by that I don't think about and miss mine. xoxo
