We are at week 8 of The 52 project. Here is a photo of my 7 1/2-year-old g’daughter, D. She loves the camera, and it loves her. Were I a better photographer, I could better capture her incredible spirit. It is my hope that through my participation with The 52 Project, I will improve my photo taking skills.

Today, D. is dolled up in a dress and makeup that she bought at the Dollar Store. She is going to her Uncle’s birthday party, and although she usually doesn’t wear dresses, she choose to do so today. It’s not as though she dislikes wearing them, but her activities, like gardening, climbing trees, and active Girl Scout activities requires sturdier attire. This photograph finds D. taking a moment from playing a video game on the computer.

Blessing, Lydia
