“A portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2013.”

Sunny: Two birthday parties yesterday resulted in balloons and other goodies coming back to Cartwheel Farm. Sunny, who’s probably run 3 miles inside our house by 8:30 this morning, pauses for a moment to display this one.

Kaki: Who’s been sick all week has a strong affinity for her antibiotic and its dispenser. After she’s sure that there’s no more medicine to be had, she proudly parades around the house with the dispenser giggling and flailing in search of a doll who might enjoy their own medicine. Inevitably, it’s discarded in a deep corner of the playroom; it’s an accomplishment every time we’re able to find the syringe again.

More details about The 52 Project here. To view all the portraits in the series with explanations as to why I’ll be capturing the portraits in the early morning, visit here.

Many thanks to James for this edition while I’m abroad.
