Little girls, like butterflies, need no excuse. ~ Robert A. Heinlein
Some of the little girls on my block are very sweet, and impossible for me to resist - especially when I have a camera in hand.
You all know Lily pretty well by now - she's a stealer of grape hyacinths, other blossom petals and of hearts.
A few doors down from Lily, you'll find Jaylyn. She usually has a smile on her face - especially when she sees Benny.
Jaylyn's little sister is Bria. She was much smaller last autumn. Kidlets have a way of growing up over the winter.
Bria's same-aged cousin is Lynzie, whom you've also met semi-recently. There's another lovely face peeking over these huggin' cousins from behind. Let's get a closer look at her.
Lynzie's older sister, Leah. Another beauty to add to this bevy.
You can see that there are no shortage of adorable children in my neighbourhood. And these are only a few of them.
Pretty dresses
Little Curls,
Oh thank heaven
for little girls!
I'll have more photos coming up in a few days.

I'm going to miss those cutie-pies. :)
Sweet as shuugar, they are.
Love the Dora the Explorer shoes, too!
Great captures!
Such sweet shoes. They are adorable, but of course Jaylyn smiles when she sees Benny. I do, too! :-)
They really are adorable, Hilary.
Really love the last shot here.
Those sneakers are the best!
Happy day to you!
they are so sweet - your photos treat them with such tenderness and love.
Little girls are so sweet. Sometimes. Other times.... well, life with little girls can be a challenge. I know, 'cos I used to be one!
Ah, they do put a smile on everyone's face! You missed your Lucy!
such adorable neighbors .. i hope you get to visit them once you move
I love those shoes in the last photo. Too cute.
ha. that first quote is awesome...as are the pictures...what beautiful little faces....smiles
Once you move, you will have to go back and visit the old neighborhood once in so often to see how these darlings grow.
They are all so precious and you have a gift for capturing their smiles. I'll miss them when you move!
What adorable faces....I can see why you just have to capture them. I hope you are sending their mommas a copy...because you take such good pictures they would be priceless to them!!
Cuzzie, I think you were born with a camera in your hand - your photos are always so expressive and "spot on" that they must be an extension of you.
I love waking up to one of your posts.
They really are some beautiful girls who will become stunning young women. :)
Oh my goodness! You have captured some very special images here! What sweeties!
Little girls in their natural environment is always a wonderful photo opportunity...
I always thought you were a great nature photographer but you are equally talented at taking pictures of children. Their personalities are so well captured. Nicely done.
Lovely pics. And I have found that kids, no matter where in the world, love to have their photos taken ...
Wonderful portraits of these little charmers. Nobody can resist them!
I made a decision a lot of years ago not to shoot kids unless I had their parents permission. Since I rarely see the parents, no kids in my shots. Love the flowers tho.
Besides looking sharp, kids can be most interesting.
And I thought nature photography was your forte!
It is, but obviously, so are cute, adorable little children. You bring out the best in them. :)
What will you do when you move away from them? Awww....
Awww...so dang cute, each and every one of them!
aww, such adorable little girls!
terrific portraits of these cuties here.
what a sweet post!
big hugs~
Cute kidlets, and them in your vicinity.
Let's hear it for the girls.
They look like little angels! :)
A bundle of cuties!
So much cuteness!
And not one of these little beauties minds posing for the camera.
As a fellow mom-of-only-boys, I understand the magnetic pull of these sweet girly smiles. And as someone who has moved too many times, I understand the tug on the heart as you prepare to sell your home and move away from such wonderful neighbors. ♥
they are precious, each one of them
They are very beautiful little girls and have character.

OMG! they are all very sweet and cute.
Look at all those happy little ladies. I also gave you a little shout out. Thanks for the inspiration!

How precious! Some of these photos take me back to me and my 2 sisters as little girls. :)
Is this in the from location or the to location? If it's the from, I'm glad you're capturing those sweeties in film!
These are all omg moments . So beautiful.
Aww, they are so cute! Such sweet portraits.
So fun! While visiting my Mom in Ohio,I noticed the little girls across the street setting up a Lemonade stand. I fished for some change and feigned needing two Large glasses at 50 cents each! They were thrilled. Then visiting my 93 year-old Aunt, a Boy Scout selling candy rang the bell. I ordered two--remembering how great it was as a kid to make a sale like this! :)
I love these little-girl photos Hilary. Your photos are a credit to you and creat a warm feeling in the viewer - Dave
