I was lucky enough to be invited to the Pebble Beach Pro/Am golf tournament on Giovanna's 8th birthday. Lucky because she loves to play golf (go figure) and because this turned out to be a perfect day.

As the tournament was ending, we took a walk down the 18th fairway and I was able to get a few pictures of her.

This picture defines my job as a parent. I see Giovanna as a brave, smart little girl facing a very big world that holds beauty, promise and danger.
