I hope to allow him to continue the flow of creativity and one of the activities I love for him to do is to take pictures. I later leaf through the photos to see what he sees and note how he frames an object. While on our trip to Missouri I gave him the camera and let him be in charge of photography. Sometimes while I was driving; sometimes while we were walking; sometimes while we were just sitting and enjoying the weather while I crocheted.

He has a love of taking photos of his feet.

He also enjoys taking pictures of his mother.

A random Missouri farm.

He was very particular about how he wanted to line this shot.

Often times I wonder if it isn’t a conversion but an actual reversion to the true me that has been laying dormant for over 10 years. I feel a cognitive energy I’ve not felt in a long time in both the analytical and creative aspects of life. I want to experience and do things. I am lucky to be surrounded by incredible friends, have met wonderful people and look forward to many new experiences to come.

I no longer wish to sit by the side-lines and watch life pass by. It’s time to create, experience and just do. An exciting prospect.
