"CAN YOU SEE ME?" he yells.


I try to capture the moments that speak to the carefree decisions a three year old can make at any given moment like this one on a hot day at the zoo. 

GOATS

Portland celebrated National Night Out by hosting concerts and local food vendors at various playgrounds around town. The park was packed with good cheer and I'll never forget one family gathered on their blanket; a mom, a dad, two kids, and two kids (yes, two goats). I had heard of having goats as pets to keep the grass low, but these goats were hanging out like old mellow dogs. The family told us they milk the goats, take them for walks, and allow them to roam in and out of their house. Why not? (Picture taken at the zoo, an entirely different event. This picture just made me think of the goats at National Night Out, except he doesn't look as happy).

Daddy, Mommy, Me, and My Jesus Bandaid

Compliments of Uncle Dayn and Auntie Becky. And you were right, it helped the healing.

WE'LL MISS YOU GREAT GRANDMA...

Great Grandma Soriano lived to be 99 years young. On June 4, 2008, she re-entered the spirit world. We explained to Sekani that like the prettiest flower you can imagine, Great Grandma grew from a seed, blossomed, died, and went back to the earth. We will miss her, but have captured precious moments on camera like this one to make us smile and remember her sweetness. 

The Study of Flight


"Hey Mom, watch this! Dad, did you see that?"

Our couch has proven to be the testing ground for Sekani's study in self flight. Thank you, couch, for giving Sekani unlimited joy and safe landings.

A Knight on the Town

Thank you Auntie Becky and Uncle Dayn for bestowing my son as the Knight of Alberta Arts. The streets are now safe.
