As LP will tell you herself, she is an outdoor girl. Any chance she gets, she is climbing rocks and trees, digging in the dirt, hunting for worms, and cooking up dandelion stews. One of her favorite pastimes of all: ant watching! 🙂

When I was her age, ants fascinated me too – I used to lie on the ground (probably getting ant bites!) and just watch all that activity around an anthill…..love that photo of LP with her ant buddy!

Perfectly shot. Little Pie’s image in the background is precisely right. The ant is perfectly focused. I love this image. L will too, always. Print it for her. Are you keeping these in one place for her? How about a Blurb book? 🙂 She’d love it. With notes from Mama.

LP clearly knows to appreciate all the right things … smart girl … maybe she’ll grow up to be a biologist? Great photo L. D

I’m with LP on that one – fascinating little creatures. Lovely shot.

It sounds like she has found the right road to travel. Nature will never disappoint her.

She reminds me of me! Anything that crawled, flew, or slithered captured my interest and imagination as a child. How wonderful of you to encourage the essential wonder!

This draws us into a world of wonder that calls us back to a time long ago..

Just the way to do it: the ant in focus and the mouth soft beyond.
