This photo was taken when my son was 6 months old and it was easier for me to bathe him in the bathroom sink - he was growing fast but he still liked it even though he was practically spilling out the sides by then. I think it reminded him of being in the womb , all snug as a bug.I remember the sunlight was streaming in through the skylight that day. It bathed his sweet skin in this ethereal golden velvet coat and i felt compelled to grab my husband and make him take this photograph then and there.
It has become one of our favorite photographs of him ( and we have amassed THOUSANDS, already !! ) It reminds me of one of those artistic Kohler sink ads.
He is the light of our lives and this photograph symbolizes how soft and gentle that light still feels to us. It is a light that comforts .
It is a light that washes us clean like children again.

I love the tones. That is such a lovely picture.
I have tears. Such a beautiful picture; it says so much. I can almost see love cradling him in that sink.
That is sooo dreamy. What a wonderful shot.
