Update: This photo will be entered into iHeartfaces “Pink” Challenge today. It’s of my little girl who is so shy. This post was also a celebration of motherhood so it’s perfect for Pink Week in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
When I search for inspiration I almost always I turn to my hard drive for photos. I took this image of my little girl while at our Valentine’s Day lunch. It’s perfectly her. She’s extremely shy. One who speaks softly in a crowd and will answer if addressed but who will rarely start a conversation.
Her friends will say that she’s quiet. Her brother will say she has the loudest scream he’s ever heard. She commands her horse with quiet determination. And she is the apple of our eye.
Yesterday, I read this essay by Marcie Scudder on Vision and Verb. We are ”your daughter’s mother and your mother’s daughter”. If you read it, it will lift you.
daughters are so special . a lovely image and happy thoughts about yours today
She is beautiful!! Like her mama!!
Your pretty image does match your written description. I can imagine her….
This photo alone lifted my spirits! What a beautiful girl! Her spirit shines through….
My youngest daughter now 24 was exactly the same. Shy and quiet but have shown all her friends and family that she is a young woman with the strongest determination we have ever seen. What a beautiful daughter you have
A lovely tribute to your daughter.
She sounds a lot like my daughter! She is so beautiful and what a lovely capture this is.
She is so lovely. I am glad you get to be her mom.
I am ready to be moved. So I am going to go read it.
Thank you : )

A lovely tribute to your daughter – she is in your capture as you describe her with your words. So lovely, Puna.
She is absolutely beautiful. And your photo describes her just as your words do.

She’s beautiful. It’s a GORGEOUS shot of her!
She is beautiful, and it sounds like she is as beautiful in the inside as she is in the out.
