beautiful – mother nudges her along and out into the world with her first steps
Yes. In such a gentle way.
Sweet! Several years ago, the was a baby giraffe in Mysore Zoo. The parents were called Honey and Henry, but the baby was named Jayachamarajendra!
Would have loved to have seen this family….

Beautiful image. The love of a mother…
It really is!
That did it! Thanks Dave.
Mission Accomplished!
Yes, I need that nudge to get going on a cold, dark winter’s morning.
So me too!
All so-o sweet! Amazing how fully formed and ready Ella looks—and right at the camera!
True. A baby read to go!
We all need a little nudge once in a while, especially on a post-holiday Monday!
Yes. Or a Push!
Moms are the same all over!!
They are!
the gentle mother helping to launch her brave, beautiful baby into a new world…a journey I hope goes on for many years…
Yes. Let’s hope so.
What a touching beautiful greeting – Ella is super cute and so wide awake! (contrary to this writer here…)
Yes!
