A portrait of my daughter every day in 2014

Through frosted glass as she(once again) refuses to come inside.

Trying to convince this child that it is cold, wet and rainy out doesn’t seem to matter. She wants out.

I love this photo, not because its a great image, but because it captures her spirit, in that moment, with her dog and her ball. It’s one of those images I will look back at when I’m old and grey and remind myself of how much she loved this dog and that ball.

She hasn’t lost all of her wonderful baby fat yet.

She demanded to go out and play in the rain, and had to be dragged back inside by her cold, wet parents.

She ate half a pint of blueberries at dinner tonight.

She was beyond excited to come home tonight and see her dogs.

It took a lot to finally get her into this state tonight. Car naps are the devil/a lifesaver depending on the day.

She has some very important gardening to do.

She thought the dog trying to escape with her snout was awesome, I did not so much agree.

She makes this little fishy face when she howls at the dogs.
