You see this picture…
It is not the best picture in the world, but I love it. I love it because it shows the 3 people that I love most in this world traveling as one. It makes my heart fill with joy and nostalgia for the present because right now we are this compact little family that travels together and we feel complete. One day we will not be this compact, we will take up more space and the distance between us will grow. One day, I will not be able to wrap my arms around the three people I love the most all at once. But today I can, today I can wrap my arms around all three of them at once. And that’s why I love this picture.

I took a photo of my husband, son and daughter walking along a path in front of me, all holding hands. One of my favorite photos.
I really like this one.

Wonderful shot of your little family. Keep them close, they don’t stay that small very long.

Nope… kids get big and husbands get fat.

I love when you see daddy taking care of the kids, it just warms your heart. Beautiful memory one to be framed :). In my house they are far and few so I must save them!

It is the best photo because you love it. Thanks for sharing the sentiment. My three are teenagers and young adult and I’d have to ‘corral’ them to get them together for a photo.

what a nice thought – it reminds me of the song “the voyage”
Here’s a few lines –
Life is an ocean and love is a boat
In troubled water that keeps us afloat
When we started the voyage, there was just me and you
Now gathered round us, we have our own crew

Sometimes the best pictures in the world are not the best because of how beautifully shot they are. My favorite pictures are probably garbage in the eyes of a professional photographer.

It’s wonderful that you realize that this moment is fleeting, so you stopped and appreciated it. I can feel the love in this photo.

I love this! My fav pic of my boyfriend and son is also from behind. There’s something about them not knowing that the picture is being taken that makes it seem so much more special. It’s candid and shows that they weren’t purposely posing for the picture, its just effortless.

LOVE this!!! It makes my heart happy to see so much love, but most esp from a daddy. It’s hard to find good daddies these days. Sad but true!

OMG! Now I am crying — you put that so perfectly. One day you will be bigger and further apart but you will always be that close in your heart.
Lots of love,
