Is there a future in this.?.?

So photography is starting to take over my life... I'm am so absorbed in it, reading everything I can get my hands on, walking around with my camera everywhere I go and taking so many pics of the kids they actually whine when they see the camera come out! I dont know what this all means yet, but I do know that my life has changed since getting a DSLR and photoshop. I spend almost as much time editing pics as I do taking pics. I think I see a difference (for the better) in my photos now and it just keeps spurring me on. I am sticking to the fact that I am very happy with the camera and lens I have now, but I've heard that upgrading can become quite an obsession in this field. I am planning on working towards the goal of actually being paid to take pictures. But for now, I am willing to take anyone's photos anytime FOR FREE, just to get the practice. I cant promise you any great ones, but I might get a few pretty good ones out of it. Here is a couple I have taken and edited or some that Ben has taken and I have edited. Let me know what you think!
