]]> Photographer Urlic Collette shows how strong family DNA can be by photoshopping photos of relatives next to each other so that we can clearly see the similarities they share. He got the idea after photoshopping his son’s image and started comparing other couples — fathers and sons, siblings, grandparents, and grandchildren, etc.

Urlic explores the power genetics has over our physical appearance and shows that it doesn’t have to be a direct connection — it can sometimes skip a generation or show up in unexpected places.

]]> When the holiday season comes, it’s only natural to assume that it’s going to be full of fun and joy with hardly any stress at all, right? Well, not if you’re a parent of a toddler.

This mom found a fun way to show what holidays are all about by twisting verses of 12 Days of Christmas.

“We are full swing into Christmas in this house,” Stephanie shares, “however my ever-growing tally of broken ornaments is a constant reminder that there is Christmas, and there is Christmas with kids. This is why I wanted to create a fun rendition of one of my favorite holiday songs.”

“12 Days of a Toddler Christmas is for all the parents out there enjoying the thrill of candy cane sugar highs, and Santa Claus meltdowns,” she adds. Enjoy!

]]> Every kid has a favorite toy, and for Adrian Murray’s four kids, it’s this stuffed teddy bear. It all started when he took a shot of his oldest son and the teddy, and he just kept including it in various pictures of the kids.

You can clearly see that the kids have a special bond to this adorable toy. See some of the photos below; they might inspire you to do something similar with your family.

Pablo Picasso once said, “It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child.” Given that art falls back on its aesthetic, it’s fair that he focused on the challenge to create paintings that looked like a child had done them. It was something that wasn’t done. The goal for artistry was to create lifelike images. To record an idea in a single frame. Fast forward to today and perhaps you could argue that we should all “paint like a child.” Though, replace the word “paint” with “imagine.” A child sees endless possibilities in what is presented to them. They’re not bound by the same rules that us adults are. Everything can be personified. Magic exists. There seem to be no limits within their world. Just the limits that we impose on them. Though if we allow it, their imagination can teach us something. To hold onto imagination.

]]> Kate Weiland and her family of five are probably the most adorable thing you’ll see whole week. This artist and mom of three wanted to try forced perspective photography with her husband and kids, and the results were so great that they kept going.

Their props mostly include food but you’ll often have to look twice to make sure there is actually food on the pictures. Plus, we’ve included some mom & daughter photos that are serious #goals.

Top Secret Tips to go by: 👉🏻 • Eat the carbs, 👉🏻 • Vedge out when you can, 👉🏻 •‘Wise men speak because they have something to say; fools – because they have to say something’. – Plato My knee jerk reaction to the new Instagram filter for comments that are ‘intended to hurt or abuse others’ was that as much as I can agree with the theory behind it, it also felt like a block on freedom of speech. But after reconsidering it, I realized that one ( of I’m sure many ) issues that they’re trying to abolish is stifling the trolls hiding behind their keyboards spewing toxic digital garbage. It’s an assertive move on Instagram’s part, and one that I can certainly get behind having experienced ‘trolls’ first hand. ‘If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all’ – stuff we all learned in preschool – right? What are your thoughts regarding the new @instagram comment filter? #teatime #motherhood #lessons #momentsofmine #conversations #igmotherhood #besties #treasuringlittlememories #pixel_kids #wildandbravelittles #thatsdarling #jj_its_kids #igmotherhood #candidchildhood

🌿Keeping the skin on my face and neck healthy, fresh and toxin free is huge to me. I’m extra picky about what I use because my skin is hypersensitive, so it isn’t often that I agree to promote a product unless I truly love it. I’ve had delicate skin all of my life – even products that claim ‘no irritation’ have bothered me – so when I discovered that @bioclarity is 100% paraben-free, fragrance-free, cruelty-free in that it is a VEGAN product composed of plant based components – I was sold. Ingredients like cucumber, green tea, oat kernel and olives help replenish your skin with vital nutrients that are often lost over the winter months. I feel like I’m giving my face green veggie juice with crazy powerful antioxidants. Seriously guys, if you’ve been dreaming of fresher, softer, happier skin you must give #bioclarity a try.
