Clever! I like it!

I think you have too much free time. But yes, very clever. This is very clear and sharp.

Wow...I'm missing too many threads...this is great too. Where do you find the time to do all this? Do you even sleep? :D

Very sharp and clear, Susan...you are doing great.

Great Idea.

Actually I mentioned on here several weeks ago, I really do not sleep because I have a child that only sleep a couple of hours a night, so I have plenty of time to have to KEEP myself awake. The pediatrician has tried to figure everything out with her...she is just unique! Time ...what is that ? I home school two of my children as well. (its not traditional home school but virtual. The little girl that stays up all night started school when she was four. She knew (and still does) all of her continents and information about all of them at the age of 4. She also does math and reading at a advanced first grade level. Everyone asks me if we had her tested for genius IQ. I just tell them "no" mom just spends a lot of time with her. So after my hectic day I have to find time for myself and that is my photography. It really relaxes me because it takes my mind off of things. I am thinking about composition, rule of thirds, wandering horizons, camera shake and other fun things!!

Your daughter is a very special gift and you sound like a wonderful mom. You are very lucky to be able to spend time with your children, and I wouldn't be surprised if one of them picks up you photography hobby as well. Keep up the good work.

Funny you should say that! The little one wanted a digital camera for Christmas, so she got a Kodak Easy Share. She really likes it.

Sue, I often think that this is what is missing with a lot of our children these days, Parental involvment. It is the most important thing and no doubt the time you spend with them will pay off in the long run although at times it may feel very difficult.

Keep up the good work.

Well, you can know that you have my utmost respect, Susan. I admire people like you that can take whatever God hands them and keep on smiling. My hat is off to you, dear lady!

The next time I come home from work and too tired to do anything, I'll remember you and what you do all day and all night. My day is nothing compared to yours.

Mary -

Me too.

Mothers that stay at home with their children have my utmost respect. I tried and it didn't work for me and right now I wish my DIL could stay home full time with her boys.
