Kindred spirits living 4,166.94 miles apart. Each spending their days in the simplicity of life. Wives and mothers in love with their family. Each with a passion for photography. Not just any photography but life photography. They do not work with fancy backdrops and artificial posing. They simply capture their day as it unfolds. Natural lighting, beautiful messy faces of a child, dirty counters, amazing sunsets, smudged windows and life adventures. Family and friendship. Here you will have the opportunity to peek into the lives of these two seelenschwesters. Enjoy~

Cloth Diapering Love~

Cloth diapering is one of the many natural attachment parenting interest that revealed the seelenschwester bond Leah and I carry today.
What a joy it has been meeting
like-minded mommies to share my days of mothering.
I often think of how isolated one may feel only having the ability to interact with others that are physically near.
   Especially when your interest do not flow along with what one may call "mainstream".
   To my online and real life like-minded mommy friends, you all mean so much to me. As I hold each of you dear to my heart.

Little Things

I still get wildly enthusiastic about little things...
I play with leaves.
I skip down the street and run against the wind. Leo Buscaglia
I can not recite a Leo Buscaglia quote without the thoughts of my mother.
Many explanations in life were given within the quotes of Leo.
Little Things filled my childhood.
 A childhood with rocks, sticks, leaves and trees. Wind in my face and sand between my toes. Morning sunrise and evening sunsets. Fireflies, katydids, nose nuzzles and song. Cuddles and laughter. Nature walks, overlooks and fields with wild flowers.  All gifts of our Lord.
As an adult my gift is to never stop enjoying them.
