A slice of heaven

I've always wanted to take of picture of the sky when you can actually see the beams of sunlight bursting forth from behind the clouds. To me, that is the quintessential picture of heaven.
This morning shortly after sunrise I got my lucky chance. The clouds were perfect, the sky was perfect, and my camera was just within reach. I stepped outside with my son, placed his cute one-year-old self neatly in a pile on the grass and took aim with my camera. Perfect sky moments such as these are fleeting. Fortunately I got the shot.

Then I looked down at my feet and found my own little flesh and blood slice of heaven tapping at my feet.

So he got his picture taken as well.

That's what I call a successful morning before heading off to work.
