Wanda06_28_04a.jpg

Wanda has always loved stuffed animals. It is the three year old in her. So, tonight's PAD is her snuggling a new Teddy bear.(a present from my mother, not one from Yellowstone)

I do love those baby blues. Her eyes were the second thing I noticed when we first met.

I like to "snuggle" ,, especially when I am not feeling happy. My collection of stuffed animals is just the ticket when I need a snuggle and Bill is not available. I have to address Howard's comment about the "pointing finger". .. actually, that finger was holding down an offensive paw on the Teddy Bear! No matter how I held that snuggly critter his paw kept sticking up into My face! So we had to choose between the lesser of two evils. . . a pointing finger or a paw blocking My face!

What a dreamy shot. This has to be the best single photo of Wanda, it's just wonderful. (We'll have to have a vote at the end of your year.)

A beautiful portrait. If I may offer a minor criticism, the pointing finger doesn't fit well with the softness of the overall image. It somehow seems aggressive.

Welcome back Bill and Wanda...I know you had a great vacation even tho it
was a short one... As always another gorgeous image of Wanda.

I'm not even going to ask what was the first thing you noticed about Wanda
when you first met...But I'm sure someone will.
