I love going on vacations. It’s the most concentrated time I get to spend with my boys. We’ve been doing Spring Break vacations with them for that last 5 years or so. It’s good to get away from routines, hang out, talk, catch up.

But I love coming home too. Back to my space, my things, my bed! Back to the sites out my office window.

These pretty little crocus greeted me when I got home. See, winter is almost over…

Even if it’s chilly here and I’m back to long sweats and winter crocs.

IMPORTANT REMINDER

Don’t forget to send me a link to your March photo of the month. (More info at the link) Use my contact form-there’s a link at top of blog, or email me at the email address I leave on comments on your blogs.

And did I mention it’s GREAT to be home?

Okay, now is the time! Don’t forget to send me links to your favorite photo of the month. A photo you took this month. I’ll upload them here at the beginning of April. And we’re having a poll this month! Everyone can vote for their favorite photo. (oh the pressure!! ) If you’re new to the blog, here are last month’s Photos of the Month.

Use my contact form to send me the link to your photo or blog post that contains the photo. Just like last month, I’ll do no editing to your photos, except if I have to size it down to fit on the blog post. Bonus points if you title your photo!!

So send me those photos!

As an aside, for you photography buffs, Borders has this pricey $$ Scott Kelby Photoshop CS3 book on sale for 30% off. I treated myself to it. They also had a lot of other computer/digital photography books for 30% off. Check it out if you have a Borders near you, or check out their website. Always willing to enable another photographer to to waste spend time post processing photos in photoshop!

Okay, I’m waiting for those photos! Don’t procrastinate! Stop and do it now. You know you want to get in on the fun! I’ll get the post of with them up during the first few days of April.

It was 2:30 am Saturday morning. We were still another half an hour from home during a 12 hour drive back from vacation. You would think that everyone would be tired and cranky. Or asleep.

I sat in the very back on the mini van. The white line of the highway stretched out in front of us dancing in the car’s headlights. The interior lights cast a low glow inside the car. Music played on the radio. The low bass voices of my son and my husband filled the car as they sang along with the music.

It was one of those moments that comes in so crystal clear. So sharply focused it took my breath away. One of those moments I’ll keep with me forever. Not a big momentous occasion. A tiny real life moment. When all is exactly right with my world and my heart is filled to over flowing.

Here’s hoping I stop and notice, really notice, more of those fleeting perfect moments in life.
