Photo Hunters - Yellow

What a perfect theme for this fine spring day! PhotoHunters are searching for a picture of "yellow." Can't wait to see what lovely things we see today.

So many fun ways to capture "yellow!"

Sweetly has a great photo of one of my all time favorite flowers. And I really like the creative way that Sweetanlo has chosen to show us some yellow. These are two great new bloggers (oh, no! I'm not biased at all!) Won't you please drop by and leave them a an encouraging comment? And if you have a little time, surf around some of their other posts. Sweetanlo is a writer and Sweetly is a photographer. Both with many good things to share. (oh no, not biased at all!) I think you'll be glad if you followed them. They both have some terrific posts including their "yellow" photos for today's Hunt.

Here's my photo for our "yellow" theme.

I dare you to look at this photo and not feel that pull and tightening at the sides of your mouth! Betcha can't keep your mouth from watering! Pucker up!

Thanks to TNChick for our lovely spring theme. More yellow at her place.

Licensed to Drive

This morning, my first-born, my 16 year old daughter Sweetanlo, passed her driving test and is now a licensed driver. It is a huge accomplishment for her.

I am both thrilled and terrified all at once.

The baby girl who ushered me into motherhood is, in just the blink of an eye, going to usher herself right out from under my roof and into the "real world." She's a young lady now and she's amazing.

I am both thrilled and terrified all at once.

Deep sigh.

The dicotomy of motherhood: preparing our children, pushing them out the door to experience all that life has to offer, and yet fearful of the life they might encounter...

I am both thrilled and terrified all at once.
