i heart faces - beautiful eyes

when I saw the theme for this photo challenge, this photo immediately came to my mind. It was one of the first pictures we saw of our son, before we adopted him in Ethiopia. His eyes just captivated me and they speak to me in so many ways, of such hope and such longing...determined yet vulnerable...these are the eyes of my son. Yohannes.
