Holding the little ones

Holding onto little ones, whether they want it or not.

First my youngest granddaughter being held by her mom, Michell and my son Russ, while unhappy Kate was teething. 


One of my favorite photos of my family when Russ had just been born, with his older brother Marty on my lap, and their father, Doug behind me.

Michelle holding her niece, Aby, and her daughter, Audrey...an armful of cousins!


My grandson William being held by Marty, all grown up!


Sharing with Sepia Saturday this week! - though a bit late to the show!

    1. I do like having photos of my family, and since they all live a far distance from me, the photos are extra special.

  8. I adore how the photograph of you and your two sons aged - the coloring is so iconic of that time.

  9. Such happy photos! Sometimes cousins look enough alike to be siblings, looking at the armload of cousins.

  10. Perfect choices for this weekend's theme. Your last two capture that wonderful expression that young children have displaying true natural curiosity and joyful glee.
