Meet Junior, one of my 13 year old boys. Junior can get himself into some trouble and has difficulty listening and focusing. But once you give him a task, he is focused and determined to complete it. He is an incredible artist and creative expression allows him to center on one goal and overcome his ADD/ADHD. I love this guy.

This is what he captured.

What kid doesn’t like to take selfies?

Pounding fufu

She's a fighter though. She sure knows how to laugh (and dance) her way through the tough times.

![This is my favorite image from @lovesakurabloom take by @letlovegrow. This is my favorite because baby wearing is for all ages and seeing Love's daughter snuggle and cuddle her sister makes my heart melt. It reminds me how all the children in Ghana carry their little brothers and sisters on their backs wherever they go. Love and her bunch sure know how to love endlessly and recklessly. Thanks for the opportunity to win a beautiful sling to carry my babies in Ghana with! #momsakurabloom [Mothers day IG contest]](http://distilleryimage9.s3.amazonaws.com/b6bb90bcbbff11e2820f22000a1fbcef_6.jpg)
