Tears...........

My box came today.......................
I couldn't finish my lunch. The lunch I worked so hard on. Grilled shrimp Salad.{IF you knew me, this is big}
I throw my FORK down..........run to the door.
I KNOW that deep reving engine sound of the UPS man to well :)
.
.
RIPPED open the BOX-----my heart was pounding.
then.................
.
.
.
The tears fell.
beautiful. Just beautiful.
I have never felt this way about my own art before.
It could be not so much the ART...maybe? But maybe more the Subjects I was looking at.
I was so happy to put these up.
Tears streamed my face as I placed these on the shelf {below}

I feel so LUCKY to get to capture my kids. And to display them proudly in my home.
Im teary----------maybe because I miss the girls...{been 7 1/2 days}
or maybe because I have 4 gifts in my life.
.
.
.
Or Maybe........its both.
