The theme this week at Tara’s The Gallery, a virtual picture gallery, is Joy. For more details on what The Gallery is all about please visit Tara by clicking on the picture on the left.
This week I had so many pictures I could have chosen, most of them are of my children who bring me so much Joy. It was a hard decision but I decided to go with the following picture of my eldest son and my youngest son taken on Little M’s first birthday. It’s not the best quality, I’m sure I had better ones of the same moment but I dropped the hard drive that all these were on and only some were recovered. Sob.
It brings me so much joy looking at this picture but it also makes me sad for various reasons, one being that time goes so quickly, but it is the happiness that exudes from two of ‘my boys’ that is just joyous. Little M could sit for hours with a ball being rolled to him and everyone took great pleasure in making him giggle, in fact fighting over whose turn it was.
That really is a lovely photo!

Thank you.
What a lovely photo, I have two boys and hope that they will look that happy when they learn to play together. Fantastic. x
The eldest two are boys and they have always got on…same interests helps. ;0)
The connection between the 2 of them is lovely.
You’ve also reminded me of the need to back my photos up, I take so many and I’m well behind with it. I get slightly paniced by the thought of something happening to the hard drive!

and yes, so gutted that I was copying photos onto laptop and knocked the hard drive onto the floor…some were saved but most of baby’s birth were lost. I’m still hoping someone will be able to fix it if disc isn’t damaged just dislodged. :0(
