With no intention of taking any photos, I was sitting on the front porch watching these two wild women fly past me down the sidewalk... over and over and over again. Each time they passed me they had to make sure that I was really watching them. "Mama, mama, mama, look at me" they kept saying. I know that this period of time where their mom is the center of their universe is not going to last long. I was sitting there just laughing at how funny they were, thinking how cute they looked, how sweet their voices sounded and how "real" the moment was. I thought about how much I am going to miss this someday. I wanted to just scoop them up and smother them in hugs and kisses. I had to capture it. Not so much how they looked (even though I do love Gwen's skid knee/pantless attire) but how I felt as I was looking at them.
