my baby is 6!

I cannot believe he's turning six on Saturday...seems like he just came home from the hospital nursery. happy and sad. Charlie's not 5 anymore.

the monsters and the rainbow.

charlie.

this really wasn't the best photo as far as crispness, but i really liked the composition. i softened the edges and brightened the photo after cropping it. i think the softness works as he is sleeping. furthermore, this would make a great smooth.tone piece. this is when he still had longer hair. he has a super short, like 1/8th inch, buzz cut now...he says it is embarrassing to him to have it this short, but it will keep him cool this summer.
