Flashes of Hope

Here's one from yesterday's Flashes of Hope shoot at Madison's UW Children's Hospital. I'll post a few more when I process them.

I'm always amazed by these kids. And Trudy the Director is great to work with.

This experience always humbles me - to photograph children and families who are struggling with serious illness. When things in life are relatively smooth, it can be easy to sail along without an acute awareness of priorities, gifts, and grace.

Sometimes it takes life's bigger interventions to help us sort the "things that matter" from the "things that don't," to do so some of life's weeding and sifting, and then to also live accordingly.
