Photographer's Narrative

 

It really warmed my heart when I could take pictures of my fellow Thunderbirds at hospital visits. The kids truly looked up to us like role models by being on the team. This photo was made possible by someone else telling me to look inside at the boy we just visited. The biggest lesson I learned on the team the joy of doing for others.
