This picture was taken in while visiting Kosovo. It is of some children play in the dirt street of the city of Peja. They seemed oblivious to their worn surroundings, as well as the torrid past that Kosovo held during the war several years back. This image made me think of perseverance, as well as hope for a brighter and more peaceful future for them.

This is a photo of my little girl, Ella as she goes through the motions of learning how to ride a bike . Faced with her fears, she rests in the thought that Dad is there to help her. And with that thought she gets her strength and her confidence. Here's to her dad and all the dads who take the time to be one!

My daughter, her husband and newborn baby. My daughter, Jessica, was determined to have her baby before her husband, Matt, would ship out on the cruiser Ronald Reagan. She made it! January 1, 2005 Georgia Porter was born! Her husband, Matt shipped out the next day to the Gulf. It was wonderful and very sad at the same time.
