"He was getting to do the things that I got to do when I grew up," Habing said.
Of course, she and her son are different. She was a quiet and content girl, she said. She spent hours playing with her siblings.
Tharin is an only child, and he is nonstop motion. He will get up the morning and head outside to check on the plants or hunt the bugs around the farm. Cats love him, and new ones seem to emerge all the time, seeking affection from him.
He's obsessed with his four-wheeler and will venture all over the farm, exploring new territory and getting stuck in mud puddles.
"His grandpa has one, his uncle has one, he thinks he needs a bigger and better one," Habing said. "He will literally ride that four-wheeler all day long, till he runs out of gas."
Habing shoots in black and white just because it's how she feels most comfortable. Still, to capture an image is a pleasant coincidence. There's no hovering over Tharin.
