I can not believe it, it is week 25 of the Bloom Fab 15′s Project 52. I am part of a Project 52 with a wonderful group of ladies from over on the Bloom forum. Each week we take our own look at a new theme and the theme this week is ‘independence’. So while Im looking forward to seeing lots of 4th of July style celebration of independence from my American friends here in Australia the first thing that comes to mind when you say independence is one of my boys. I’ll see if you can guess which one? 
Clue its mid winter here, rollseyes.
Okay, did you guess? My gorgeous youngest is fiercely stubborn and independent, chalk and cheese to his older brother. My oldest is too lazy to even get his own clothes from his wardrobe whilst my youngest will not let me select even his undies (or as the boys insist ‘jocks’). In fact Cal refuses to wear long trousers at all and has become a shorts only man.
For more on this weeks theme head to the wonderful Jessica Nelson Maryland Photographer. (SORRY for any breaks in the blog circle I was unaware Erin was out this week).
P.S. Just wanted to say a big thankyou for all the lovely comments last week they really lifted my spirits!
I love their expressions, Cal looks stubborn and defiant in the first. I can’t decide what Rory’s expression is, each time I look at the photo I see something different. I can’t wait to see the boys again soon (I’m hoping to get a break and visit at the end of the month).
It’s so funny reading this week because several of us have expressed Independence through our children. I could have written your post. My son is & daughter are the same way.
Fantastic images of him Cara. Isn’t it amazing how different siblings can be?
Cara – could you email me when you have a chance? I tried emailing you but it comes back undeliverable. Thanks! I know your web address changed, but maybe your email did too?
So so cute! I love the looks you get from the spirited independence.
I love his expression in the second picture!
You can definitely see that independent spirit shine through!
I have three that like to assert their independence regularly all in different ways.
Love the expression in all of your images.
Darling boys, as always! Such little spirits!
