Mayhem: The scene unfolds here without context. There is both surprise and delight manifesting young and old. Young, Ava-Grace, moves tiny, plump hands to her mouth, but it's the eyes that say it all. "Daddy is at it again." Don't let father's casual criss-cross-applesauce posture fool you. He has been tickling and pestering his precious baby girl for 20 solid minutes prior to this escape and awe. I am on the sofa, aloof and at work, and only look up long enough to shoot this frame. Remaining clueless about that context, I capture what I love about these two and this life. Both exist as and beyond context. Both require song and sacrifice. And both make meaning without intent. This slight mayhem is the entirely the point.
