First I must start by saying "Thank You!" to Andrea Scher of Superhero Designs for posting her weekly "photo assignments," she has inspired me to look at my world more creatively, taking time out of sometimes mundane and hectic daily life to make some beauty. It is nice to have a prompt and to see the way others interpret and create based on her suggestions.
This week's assignment was to photograph hearts that cross our paths. Immediately I began looking around my environment and one of the first things I saw was a Delilah-dog toy at my feet. This particular toy's original purpose was to entertain a toddler, but when I saw it it was screaming Delilah! so I brought it home for her and she was wildly enthusiastic about it. It is one of the few toys that she will pick up and play with by herself. As you can see in the second photograph the toy has various appendages hanging from it and some of them rattle, this is thrilling to my little doggy daughter. She likes to grab it in her mouth and shake it all about, making all kinds of noise that never ceases to make me smile. One of its tentacles it shaped as a heart.
The second thing I spotted that hosted a heart was a notebook I made a bit ago to contain all things related to me and Joshua's upcoming nuptials. I put the heart there as a trademark of our emotional life.
It seems, little reminders of love follow me throughout my days, in the smallest of places, and sometimes as an afterthought. I'm glad today I was able to take the time and acknowledge love's ever-presence.
