Birthday Girl…

We recently visited our niece and her family for a joint celebration of her daughters’ birthday. The oldest, Chloe, will be three in a few days, and with her curly hair she makes a wonderful subject for a portrait. I especially like the photo with the rocking chair set against the house. The family lives in an old house on the property of a the non-profit Huych Preserve, of which our niece’s husband is director. I don’t know how old the how is, but it is old and has all the charm of a bygone century.
