What a wonderful capture. You did a super job!
I did one of my new born kitten just a minute old and didn't know if I should enter that, but did anyway.
Life is what it is and should not be viewed as nothing BUT amazing!. #4421223

Thank You all for your kind words! I am so proud to be an Aunt again, my brother and sister in law gave my niece my middle name. I have never felt so honored! I hope everyone is having a great day and thanks again!!! Here is a picture of her just before she came home. #4421532
