And this one:
Love your daughter's expresion on that last one. You could cut and paste her into all kinds of interesting situations.

Hi, Doug,
Your wife's eyes, or more properly, her gaze, sends an amazing message of compassion, wisdom, and awareness. And she has evidently passed on this capability!
Best regards,
Doug
Hi Doug,
This is enjoyable. The pictures show a special relationship between mother and daughter. Kathy used the word, "impish" to describe your daughters look toward her mother and that's so apt.

P.S. I sent to a PM!
Hi Doug,
I've been up to no good looking at your wonderful wife and charming daughter.

I had reservations about the background which to me seemed cluttered and also the need for color. I find that the B&W version brings the two of them closer. Colors that are unnatural allow us to focus on superficialities, such as impressive clothes or splashes of accent color. Here, where the two characters relate to one another on a socially committed and cognitive level, color is not needed to bring out their beautiful bonding, cherishing and respect for each other. That's where BW often does a better and purer job.
So here's my result.

Hi Doug,Thanks, Asher. How did you mute the background?
