I found him the other day with this book “How to Steal a Dog”. My poor kiddo has been asking for a dog for a long time. Begging, pleading, bribing… “I am an only child and don’t have siblings. At least get me a husky. Or…I won’t play video games if I have a dog.” Sadly, it isn’t happening. He has a pet lizard and hermit crabs that don’t get cared for by him. But finding him with this book, makes me mommy heart wonder if desperation is setting in?:-)I might be caving in a bit as well.
These images were inspired by the Five Minute Project where I am a regular contributor. Also, what started this project was the above polaroid image that I took of him shortly before taking these. This little vintage camera has been inspiring me to look at light differently!

wendy laurel - beautiful per usual. one word of advice on the dog — you must love it and want to care for it too.. since it will actually be your dog. 🙂 (said from mom with 2 dogs owned by kids, right.)
