The little moments ..

Where has the time gone?
 So, another birthday has come and gone, and once again I am reminded how lucky I am.
2012 came with so much change, and often times I am caught in the superficial drama of life.. but when we stop and just look at what matters most, I quickly realize who and what matters most to me.
My teenagers surprised me on my birthday by taking me on a sunset picnic dinner at Schoodic Point. It was by far one of the best birthdays ever!
We took over 500 pictures .. teenage girl has taken over my camera. I didn't realize she was taking these pictures, and had a great chuckle when I started previewing the pictures the next day.

And of course we needed to get a family portrait using the self timer , first the set up of balancing the camera..

then the quick jaunt to sit in the designated spot, not realizing what 'they' were doing ..


Finally a picture worth framing!

and of course A Schoodic Point sunset!

At the end of the day, I realized how lucky I truly am to have these moments with my teenagers. It's hard to believe that in less than 15 months, both my babies will be on their "own" ... well, somewhat!
