Two fingers of a hands hold a tiny heart shaped rock in front of a fire burning on the ground.
A snowy mountain range glows orange in the sunset light
Two smiling girls. On the left is a young girl in a blue butterfly shirt and on the right is a much older one in a black tshirt and glasses. The girl is lying in her bed and the woman is leaning over to get into the frame.
In the top left is a white girl with blonde hair, lying on a beanbag chair, a small smile on her face. In the bottom right is the open pages of The Wild Robot.
A brown haired white woman with glasses lies on a bed snuggled up with a little white girl. Both are on their sides, grinning hugely. The little girl is probably plotting something if I’m being honest with you.
A grinning boy with brown hair and light brown skin stands on a beach wearing teal and yellow swim goggles and a red sweatshirt. He is grinning at the camera, giving an enthusiastic two thumbs up.
A toddler lies in a hospital crib covered in tubes and wires. Attached to the foot of the crib are photos of him and his sister, showing him happy and smiling, a stark contrast to the sick little boy in the bed
A brown haired toddler sits grinning on a log in the forest wearing a green shirt that says “young and brave”
A small infant with big brown eyes lies on a medical cot. Attached to his chest are multiple stickers and wires.
Photo by Meg Brock Photography, a scene in the delivery room. On the left, a woman with cropped grey hair holds a tiny newborn who is waving a tiny hand up to his father, an Indian man who kisses his head. In the space between their bodies, a smiling white woman beams.
A black and white ultrasound photo of the profile of the cutest baby in the world.
A group of enthusiastically waving nurses in royal blue scrubs sit on a concrete dock in front of a large white ship with “Africa Mercy” written on the bow
A white woman with short brown hair, glasses, and a black face mask is wearing a grey hoodie and carrying a stack of ten hardback novels that she just purchased for one singular dollar. Ten cents apiece. You can see the wild joy in her eyes.
The two boys from the first photo in the thread stand together, grinning, displaying the treasures they bartered for, including several necklaces, a wand, some freeze dried candy, and a tiny 3D printed octopus.
Two hands holding handmade treasures. One is a small green pom pom with googly eyes. The other is an orange pipe cleaner wound around a pencil and topped with a blue pom Pom with one giant googly eye.
A white cardboard box filled with assorted treasures including wooden blocks, a blue crocheted snake, friendship bracelets, chocolate covered pretzels, a pencil, and some bookmarks.
Two boys (one with long brown hair and light brown skin wearing a red sweatshirt and giving a thumbs up and the other with long blonde hair and white skin wearing a black Adam tshirt) stand behind a table. The table is covered with a brightly colored checked blanket and on it are a selection of items for sale, including origami figures, crochet ornaments, and carved stick wands.
A colorful crochet mandala hanging on a neutral grey wall.
A white woman with short brown hair stands at a podium on the right side of the photo. Behind her is a huge screen showing a photo of a toddler lying in a hospital bed, holding a stuffed giraffe. The toddler is intubated and there is a little moustache drawn on the tape holding the tube in his mouth, along with a tie drawn on the bandage that runs the length of his sternum. The eyelashes on his closed eyes are ridiculously long.
A sunset with a lamppost and trees silhouetted in the foreground. The sunset fades, top to bottom, from blue to light blue to purple to pink to orange, the colors getting more vibrant as you go.
