This is a peek into my life. This is how my mornings go as the girls go off to school. Every morning they want me in the window waving and blowing kisses, throwing the sign for "I Love You" and making silly faces.
And I took this shot on 3 days to get it right. First day was precious, but blurry, second day Emily blocked Clara out of the window. And 3rd day was clear finally, but it was no longer new and fresh, but I was the annoying, creepy mom with the camera out everyday. Stop already mom. And Emily and I had just exchanged some words...me correcting her. So she was not happy. She was done. Well this is my life, too.
I'll post the precious version so you can see how normally sweet it is. And no more cameras today only waves, kisses, dances and I love yous!
Part of me melts when they go, a piece of my heart breaks and a part of me is dancing!
This one is perfect with the sharp image of the bus and the girls, the blurred background and the bright colors. And I like the wistful look on Emily's face. Kudos.
Precious memories, well captured. And decades from now, when they visit, they'll expect you to stand at the door and wave as they leave (at least, that's what I do with my mom - it's tradition)
".....Part of me melts when they go, a piece of my heart breaks and a part of me is dancing!..." I love that. I think it sums up motherhood and letting them go, letting them grow, letting them be independent of us.
Lovely capture, and well done for persevering on the shot.
