If you read yesterday's post, you'll recognize this little angel as one who is preparing to be photographed with the the Holy Family in the nativity scene at Christ United Methodist Church in Greensboro. This little child seemed to be an angel even without the costume. Childhood is such a magical time and memories like this one, last a lifetime. For those who celebrate it, Christmas is such an easy time to do special things with our little ones. Greensboro is a great city for December activities, secular as well as lay!
This is our contribution to Monochrome Weekend which makes us pause and ponder. Will heaven be monochrome or in color? Oh, and will there be tennis shoes and bobby socks on angels in heaven?
Very cute!! I'm thinking heaven will be in color though as to the bobby socks and tennis shoes it's any ones guess.

The one I have trouble with is eternity;time without time.

Getting philosophical, aren't we? I have never given much thought to angels' footwear. Somehow I guess I thought they (we?) would be barefoot or perhaps wearing some sort of cloudy soft slipper--white, of course.

This has got to be one of the best photos I've seen lately. She's so cute I want to cuddle her and tell her a Christmas story (a lay one...)

Adorable! This is my last week participating in Monochrome Monday .. I still plan on posting monochromes from time to time, but not in a formal way...

Great shot. Kids make the best subjects and you caught this moment perfectly.

Wonderful shot of the little angel. Reminds me of my childhood and my daughter's too since we were both angels in the Christmas pageant as children.

I like the angelic bluraround the edges, too.

of course there will be tennis shoes in heaven! And bobby socks if one desires, and yes, all dogs go to heaven. Nice photo!
