another really candid shot when my daughter Ali and grandson Leo visited this weekend ... ali asked Leo to massage her feet .. and he started kissing them ... it was adorable ... i got a few pics of that .. didnt consider entering any in a challenge because some ppl might be turned off by someone kissing another person's feet ..
he looked up and smiled at me and i got this shot .. lucky me that i realized today it fitted the word for word challenge .. perfectly .. !! .. :)

Congratulations!
Only through a great love can you take an image like this.
This little boy and your daughter are lucky to have such a perfect portrait.
Simple title, but the image overfills the title. The depth of his happiness is almost beyond comprehension. Additionally, the composition is deftly brought out by subtle, natural layering. The excellent lighting actually seems cast outward from his glowing face. One of the tenderest images I've seen on the site.
Personal favorite of the challenge.
