(THANK YOU so much, Shutter Sisters, for choosing this image!! The Daily Click. Also, visit my Flickr page.)
This is my daughter. She is the most wonderfully funny child. She is full of vibrancy and life. She’s even keel and friendly. She has a wonderfully healthy way of looking at her relationships and she is well liked. I chose this image because it really shows her face. She has a portwine stain that I find wonderfully engaging. People have often told me that once they met her, they’ve never forgotten her. We have often talked of laser surgery and if she would like to do that, but she has always turned it down stating that it would be too weird for her to not have the birthmark and that it’s just who she is. In her earlier school days, there was an art assignment where the class had to draw portraits of each other. Several students drew a portrait of V, some with the birthmark and some without. One even drew the birthmark as a pink flower around her eye. I cherish this artwork so much. It is a testament to those who see, how they see, and to those who don’t. I’m proud to be her mother and I love her. I love her so much.
This is image 30:365 taken a couple of years ago. Canon 40D, natural light.
