Yesterday I had the pleasure of accompanying Anthony on his school’s field trip to the Huntington Library. I have to say, I’m really happy Anthony is only 10 and not 13 because those 3 little years make a huge difference in boys. Anthony still likes to hold my hand, give me hugs and he wants me to sit with him for lunch … and best of all … I’m not forcing him! I’m not going to lie, 10 years old has been a challenging age … at times down right frustrating! I hear it’s only going to get worse before it will get better so yesterday I did what everyone says … take in the moment and enjoy it. I’m really lucky to have such a sweet, caring and happy child. After lunch I let him use my camera while we walked around. It was the first time I actually saw him excited to use it, he’s played with my camera before but this time it was glued to his eye. What was interesting to me was his innate ability to see the geometric shapes and patterns in the surroundings around him. I took the time last night to edit some of his pictures so I thought I’d share.
I thought it would be fun to show a little before and after … all the images on this post were processed using The Totally Rad Action Mix (the Revenge series)

I have a 10 year old boy too so I can totally relate. Somedays he is still my baby and other days he’s too cool for me. It’s very bittersweet.
Okay, I have tear filled eyes!!! You are such a great, great mom!
