EXPRESSIONS

..... of the facial kind.

 I had to laugh the other day when a friend commented on my daughters very intense expression.

 We have known each other since our kids were together in first grade

and I wondered how she had missed seeing it before.

 It made me think about it though

 and how I always got that comment when I was spotted in my car driving....

except I get told I look angry.

 So I made a concerted effort to relax my facial muscles so as not to send the wrong signals.

 So here we are with life repeating itself,

except reminding her to relax only makes the frown deeper.....

and in anycase on her I find it interesting.

 It happens when she is miles away in her own thoughts

 and I wish I could tune in.

 Or maybe

 I should be careful what I wish for...

after all she is a teenager!

 

And then she registers my camera

 but only her lips change instantly to tell me to go away:)

Her full thoughts haven't returned to the present yet.

 

 

 

I love the mood of this next pic,

to me it shows the relaxed,

 hazy day we had on fathers day,

 with just a suggestion of hubby with his hands in his pockets

 pretending to stare at the ocean

 but actually listening to

 the conversation of

 his girls and

 having his mind slightly curdled.
