Hands: I Heart Faces Challenge

I think I may be going through photography challenge withdrawals.  I have actually been taking some new photos here and there.  But between the 31 Days to Becoming a Foster Parent series, the baby starting therapy (the screenings for that are ridiculous), and just regular ole mom stuff, there really hasn’t been much photography going on around here.

I saw this week’s challenge at I Heart Faces and wanted to join in, though.  I got this one from this summer.  I love this shot so I am submitting it for the “Hands” challenge this week.

I love the way it shows the roughness (and dirtiness) of a little boy’s hands, but still the gentleness of them as they hold such a tiny creature.  A creature he captured just to have Mommy photograph, by the way.  Gotta love that boy!
