Joy: I just love how you're not all crazy about how close the dog is snuggling to the baby - a little dog drool never hurt anyone! We had 3 dogs are our "first kids" long before the little humans came along. I think pets really help kids learn how to be nurturing and responsible at a young age.
Locke is just too adorable for words!

9.21.11, 7:37PM Sri: Long time lurker, first time commenter. Ihave a lot of photography blogs in my Google Reader and so every day I get to see 20-30 new blog posts from photographers I follow. That means 5,000 to 10,000 posts a YEAR. This is, easily, EASILY, the cutest, sweetest, best post I have seen all year. I bookmark very few pages, but this was the biggest no brainer bookmark ever! Guaranteed to cheer me up no matter how gloomy the day! Thanks for sharing!!! :) 9.21.11, 7:03PM

9.21.11, 6:16PM Carly: How precious to see an animal truly love a tiny person so clearly. Dogs have a way of becoming our children's second Mommy, for those moments when we can't run fast enough to sooth a cry or to create entertainment. They love us tenderly and silently and help our children learn to love as well. Beautifully captured Jessica, I look forward to more posts of Locke and Acey!
