The diaper bag is featured prominently alongside one of our daughter's "sparkle shoes" and a selection of her favorite hats. This is home. It's not an image of a house with a perfectly manicured lawn or a Pinterest-worthy kitchen.

This week's prompt required me to find a candid shot of a relationship. I made this task unnecessarily difficult due to nervousness about making subjects uncomfortable.

This week's prompt was a "softball" compared to the last couple. Take pictures of things that make me smile. Easy peasy. That's my default strategy for making photographs. Just look for things that make me happy.

This week's prompt is "Celebrate!" Fortunately it coincided with a birthday, which means that I was able to get this fantastic shot of a piece of my mother's chocolate cake.
