Little Peeps

No need to look very far for today's little miracle. These fluffy little peeps were all I needed, no sugar coating necessary. Perhaps there is nothing quite as precious as baby chicks. Add kids to the mixture and you have a match made in heaven. I begged my friend to come over with her new baby chicks just so I could have some fun with my camera and the kids. I hastily threw together  as my lights as my dining room once again became a chaotic makeshift studio. With everything pushed to the side, the sound of little chirp chirps came knocking at my door. Ooh ooh ooh we all squealed as they chirped around the dining room carpet with no particular destination in mind. As my camera lens got fussy, I tried not to. But soon, even the camera became mesmerized by the little fuzz balls. I could have spent hours with them, as the minutes passed so quickly without me noticing.  Since they left, my mind has thought of all sorts of ways to further capture their adorableness. Maybe next time. As I took shot after shot, I couldn't help but notice how nothing fits into a child's hand quite so perfectly as a baby chick. It's like they were designed to be together. I know it's not Thanksgiving, but I feel so very thankful for everything.  Easter has brought joy into our home once again. Not only did I get my bright yellow Marshmallow peeps, but a visit from the real thing. I hope your Easter is full of happy surprises.
