2011 in review, part 1

With permission, I'm borrowing this idea from Donna Boucher, a blogger and photographer I admire ... especially since she's closer to my age than many photographers I know, and a grandma, too! Check her out at http://www.booshay.blogspot.com/

Today, some favorites from the first half of 2011.

January

Ari turned one on New Year's Day ... and I celebrated being a grandmother for one year!

February

Snow ...

and ice. Lots of it.

March

Favorite little girl, favorite book.

April

Uncovering long-forgotten images.

My daughter, age 11.

May

A mother's day treat: two days with our oldest, David.

He makes Cleveland a beautiful place!

I love being a mom. I think it's made me a better person.
