Before I get into this week’s prompt, I just wanted to make sure that everyone knew my co-TTLTer’s news…Alison had her babies! She delivered her twins this week at 34 weeks, and they’re doing great. Still in the NICU but growing and feeding and getting stronger every day. Go show Alison some love on her Facebook page!
I was at Bloggy Conference this past weekend, and I thought (briefly) about taking my DSLR. I didn’t really have room for it, though, and then forgot anyway. It would’ve been really cool, though, to get pictures at the amusement park, Cedar Point! I’m kind of sad that I didn’t. I did take this photo with my phone, from the top of the ferris wheel (which I edited a little in lightroom, since this is a photography project):
And then I came home and got my DSLR and tried to work with the prompt. With the same subjects. (I know, I know)
Erv and Louise are with me all day, every day, though. And they’re both getting taller. (Louise is almost as tall as the cats now!)
I got down on the floor for these, to try to emphasize just how tall they both are. And then I went to the corner and wept for a while about just how tall they are.
Through The Lens Thursday is a self-improvement photography project that Alison of Writing, Wishing and I are doing this year.

Thank you for your sweet words, Greta! I haven't taken any photos for this week, so I'm grateful you explained that away for me. 🙂
I love the perspective, especially with Erv's picture. Seriously kid, what's the rush with the growing up?
Sweet photos! My daughter pointed out to me that she can reach my shoulder this week. It makes me cry too – all the tall!
Those growing kids! My 13 year old taller than me, I am sure I could watch him grow before my eyes a couple of years ago, now he is taller than me.
I love that Louise is as tall as the cats, super cute. Unless you have giant cats……
My daughter, at just five feet tall, is done growing.
Luckily, she doesn't seem to mind being small of stature and I have only ONE child who grew taller than I am.
(I can always think of Karly as my baby…she is six inches shorter than me!)
love the amusement park one! what's not to like about amusement parks tho, right? it's a cool night shot I think.
the other two are just so sweet – and great idea to get down on the floor to really show the perspective of tall.
Oh I love the different perspective on the kid/puppy shots – nice!
They grow way too fast – puppies and kids both! I can't believe my boy is taller than me now and I have to look up at him. 🙁
