Beauty~

There are people who can only see the beauty in ordinary places and ordinary things...things and places that are considered beautiful by all. But just because it isn't loved by all does not make it non beautiful...If we all look a little harder or maybe less harder we should find the beauty in everything. With an open mind and an open heart there is beauty to be found everywhere...you just have to look at it from a different aspect.....

Baby A is here!

What a sweet bundle of joy! Ayla has so much beautiful dark hair and the cutest little kissable cheeks. I love this first image of her big ol' daddy kissing on her....nothing sweeter than a daddy with his baby girl!

Baby Lobitz is born....

There is nothing more amazing than the miracle of a brand new baby being born. Nothing stronger than the love a mother feels for her child. I was so blessed to be a part of such a special day. Thank you Taleese for letting me capture the special moments of you meeting your baby girl, Kelly MiraBella, for the first time!

Haley H is a SENIOR!

I hope you will enjoy all the moments of your senior year...it will all be over too soon and even though you are ready to embark on your new journey don't rush thru the one you are traveling right now. Congratulations on your Sr year Haley! Enjoy every moment!

Forever and ever my baby he'll be.....

I can't even begin to explain how it feels to watch your child fall in love... I have held him and I've rocked him, I've sat up all night while fighting fevers, watched numerous hours of Batman while he ran around the house with a towel safety pinned around his neck...I've watched him cry from hurt and watched him turn from a child into a young man...and now I've seen something in his eyes that only true love can put there....

I have spent many nights praying to God to bless my son with someone who will love him unconditionally...
soften his heart...
serve the Lord with him...
be his best friend...
hold his hand until their hands are wrinkled with age...

Megan has been the answer to my prayers. I can now step aside for my role has changed and I couldn't be happier and feel more blessed!

I love you both!!

And then my soul saw you and it kind of went "Oh there you are. I've been looking for you."

Carson is 3!

No way is Carson 3!! I was in the delivery room for this little guy and have absolutely loved getting to take his photos! He is one of the best kids and his mommy is pretty great too :)

With every first there comes a last....

Today is Hayden's first day of 1st grade
          he wears his new shoes for the 1st time
          he carries a shiney new backpack
          he will write his name with a freshly sharpened pencil
          he smiled and told me he loved me as I walked him inside
Today will be the last time he will have the first day of 1st grade
          his shoes will be scuffed by the time I pick him up
          his backpack will be dirty from being thrown in the floor
          his pencil won't be sharp
But he will always smile and tell me that he loves me....
          maybe not in the same innocent way of today but I know he will always love his momma ♥ because he will always know that I love him ♥
