I am having a lazy, pj kind of day. Editing photos, eating avocados and snuggling my kids. My eldest was tracing dragons onto paper she had taped to the window. I asked her to turn. Her green eyes peered up and I snapped this shot. Her eyes are indeed green, but the individual hues and tones reflect through in this photo. Her eyes are every colour.
Enjoy this snow-stormy, candy-cane hot chocolate kind of day.

p.s. I've lost a bunch of readers because I changed my domain name. A technical blunder. If you know anyone who is looking for little old me, would you kindly point them in the right direction? Yet, if they don't find me, then perhaps they aren't meant to. *Love* xo
SO beautiful!

My goodness....they say eyes are the windows to a soul. She certainly has beauty in both!

Really lovely. So beautiful. How interesting, the dark lashes and blonde hair!

Beautiful eyes...they see much in many different shades I would wager!
You've given me the most marvelous desire for candy cane hot chocolate...some of which I just happen to have here!! It's so cold out (just came in from some errands and saying farewell to my eldest who has driven back to Waterloo) and that would be per...fect!!!
I hope you find your lost links...but I have to agree...if they don't find you or you them, then perhaps it just was not meant to be!! Glad I kept the link!! :)

Santa brought her mascara to wear around the house. :)
Lashes are naturally a dark brown.

I'm drinking peppermint tea...not quite as indulgent as the candy cane hot cocoa but warming to the toes just the same! Beautiful eyes that girl of yours has! Thanks for the new link...I'm glad I'm one of the ones who was meant to "re-find" you :)

Your daughter is so beautiful. And her eyes. My Jeffrey calls them kaleidoscope eyes.
