Path of Friends

Path of Friends

I was working around our home on a Friday when my 6 year old daughter Kira came up and said "I was wrestling with Carver and he kicked me.....now my teeth are loose". In fact both her front teeth were loose. I think they had been going that direction for a while....as corn on the cob was giving her trouble just that week....so I don't think they were actually kicked out by her 3 year old brother. But anyway, we re-arranged weekend plans because my wife had said that she wanted a family portrait before Kira lost her front teeth and now we had no time to lose. Well, the family portrait was a success that Saturday and in fact, Kira lost 1 of her front teeth that Sunday. So what does that have to do with this portrait...where you obviously don't see Kira's face let alone her teeth? Well, on the way back from the Willow River water falls where we did our family portrait, the kids were walking ahead of us and I made this image. It's one of my favorites from the session!
