i ♥ faces weekly photo challenge: "hands on fun"



hot cross buns


I have been very excited about this week's challenge - "hands on fun." I LOVE taking photos of little hands! I took my entry photograph while we were baking for Easter - we were actually making hot cross buns. Seeing my children's hands together was one of those moments as a mom you never forget. They are all growing up so quickly. I am so grateful to have captured this moment of cooperation, family, comfort and love. This photograph hangs in our kitchen as a reminder of where our focus needs to be.

Have a great week! And thank you for stopping by!

There's a verse that says "how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity." It always comes to mind when my children are working together, and it was my first thought when I viewed your photo. It's beautiful!

Allie said...

Thank you so much, Adrienne for the beautiful verse. That makes this treasured photo even more meaningful. :)
