Day 2 - Hands
This is my family. My very big family. And they’re all doing what they do best, or at least one of the things they do best, and love doing.
Doris’ picture would originally have been marking high school assignments, but she’s been annoying me lately with her phone. Sitting and texting pa tee trinkn etc. So I decided that’s what her picture will be. :)
Cindy is cutting up fruit salad. She makes them amazing. Adding small ingredients like raisins, walnuts etc. Plus, she loves cooking and making dessert in general, it’s just something she’s natural it. Whipping together a difficult dessert seems effortless in her hands.
For Clod, I have to say I took the easy one out on her :) Cause I couldn’t decide what or when I’d capture her hands, so I took a old one from her wedding photos.
Phoebe’s making a plachela. Her hands could also be studying for her huge exam in June, but I decided to capture the more relaxing part of her life.
I am scratching a dog. It’s one of a pair of dogs that frequently show up on the colony from a nearby farm, and it always brings a rush of memories back of my black lab whenever I see it, because it really looks like Nova. My hands definitely should be having something to do with animals. I find very little things as relaxing as spending time with and around animals.
Peter is shooting, quite evidently. They could also be trapping. Or most anything to do with nature. Going along on one of his expeditions is quite an adventure.
Dad is fixing a computer. I really wanted his hands to be fixing a tractor, as it’s about what he does most naturally, most often, and most loves doing. But, I missed him in the shop today, and fixing computers was the next best thing.
Mom’s unraveling an old afghan for wool for slippers or rugs. There is so much I could say about these hands. But I’ll just settle with, that they’re most always busy with some job or task. Even those hours of the day where they only move with great effort and difficulty, those hands will always find some job that they’re capable of doing. These hands are an inspiration, to say the very least.
And lastly, Anch is reading. Like mine, her hands would also be accurately portrayed cuddled in the fur of any animal, but I needed at least one pair of hands to be reading in this family of book worms.
