1st Place
On Any Given Morn*
by Barry

Mesa, AZ

things certainly used to be a lot easier, more quiet, and roomier before our family started growing ( i never used to get pushed out of bed in the morning) but you know I wouldn't want it any other way... now if they only had a bigger mattress size than king...


other sizes: small medium large original auto

BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Well got me on that one. Definetly recognizable. But in my case only two kids and one cat (who always steals my pillow when I'm asleep). =) /Jonas

LOVE IT!! LOVE IT!! LOVE IT!! LOVE IT!! LOVE IT!! LOVE IT!! THIS is what I'm all about! I've got the same setup... 3 kids and I love having them in bed. I wake every morning with at least 1 or 2 in there, and sometimes 3. Sometimes all 3 are there before I even get in. I've got a bunch of shots like this.

As for the quality of the image, I LOVE that you kept is soft. It drives me nuts that so many photogs think everything has to be tack sharp. The softness just adds to the comfort of the shot. Just beautiful!!!!!

BTW, did you know that in the US co-sleeping is one of the biggest family secrets, whereas in the rest of the world it's the common thing to do? I even heard that in Japan it's typical to continue until the teenage years! Even though I've had kids in my bed for 9 years now, and haven't had a single night where at least one didn't come in at some point, I still get giddy when I hear those feet padding into the room. They climb up, and we snuggle up and fall blissfully asleep! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! ~ Lonnit
