The Gallery - Blue

From their first early days babies need eye contact to grow and develop and so theirs are designed to make you gaze into them, stealing your time and making you lose yourself in a moment of clarity amongst the fog of newborn days. It is with their eyes that they hook you in.

My first child had a kind of all over cuteness about him from a very early age. He was cute cheeks, an expressive brow and deep red cupid bow lips. My second is all about the eyes. The big, blue, rounded eyes that you just have to look into.

This week's Gallery prompt is eyes. For more just click on the lens cup.
