Children grow up so quickly. A newborn quickly transitions from a helpless babe in your arms to an infant trying to push herself up and learning to express herself vocally. These are all the steps that I’m missing because of COVID-19. Thank goodness for the digital world where I can witness these things second hand.

Yesterday for a fleeting moment we saw our oldest granddaughter from a safe distance in front of their home in Hamilton. We were able to finally deliver her Easter gifts. Later in the day her mom sent us a photo of her enjoying her gifts.

I guess photos with this theme should evoke a sound in the imagination. Here’s what I came up with.

The sound of rushing water

…a crackling fire

I recently posted photos of flowers covered with rain drops so I had to go into the archives for these shots.
