This is for Dale's Challenge! Meet Everett, my youngest grandson, and his mother Kristi. He was tired after walking a long way on the beach, so he was in a cuddly moment!

  Awww what a great addition to the monthly challenge. I love the colors and warm light in this! :~) I do wish they were a bit more in focus...they seem soft, but it works as a dreamy feel.

  Great addition to the challenge. I actually like the focus here which is narrow but highlights the subject well as the BG elements all get very soft.

  Ah, a story image and it works so very well Beth. Did you shoot this for the challenge or was it one you already had to hand. (I know! A pretty weak pun.)

  Thanks everyone, I got this almost 2 weeks ago when we went to Texas to visit them.. I took so many pictures, just trying to get started on them. I did have the challenge in the back of my mind, but this is one of those moments you don't want to miss and I am sure several years from now, Neil and Kristi will be glad to have this one.

  Fits the challenge perfectly, Beth. I just love to see children sleeping so soundly in their parents arms. Nice color, too!

  Thank you Kristin, we never realize at the time how fast these moments are actually gone, but yet they live forever in our hearts.
