Collision

It's always fun when two of my different worlds collide and I get to reconnect with people from a past life. I knew this family several years ago from church, but we lost touch for a few years. Then recently, their son started attending the same school as my son. I hadn't seen their oldest child since he was a baby, and I had never met their youngest (who, coincidentally, has the same name as my youngest!). And now here they are, a family of four...

A Boy and His Mama...

It's always fun when I get to meet a new family. Last weekend I got to spend some time with this little cutie...

He was a happy and energetic almost-4-year-old, but not too energetic to still be very polite, and he was *almost* always willing to stop and give me some good smiles!

There's something special about a boy and his mama. Since I now have 2 boys of my own, I appreciate this special relationship so much more!

He was a perfect little model and a sweet little gentleman. I hope I get to see much more of this handsome little man as he grows!

Kicking off Fall Photo Season

Last weekend I started scouting out new locations for fall photo sessions. I took along one of my favorite families - partly because they're so photogenic and cooperative, but mostly because I just love them!

 When I showed my friend this picture, she said with a smile, "Ah, so young. So in love." They may not exactly be newlyweds anymore, but I would bet they're just as much in love today!

Sweet, beautiful girl. This is one of my daughter's best friends, and I keep hoping that just maybe some of her compliant, rule-following personality will rub off on my little one. It hasn't happened yet, but maybe someday...

Then there's this spunky little ball of fire. I love her spirit and her spunk. I can't wait to watch both these amazing girls grow up and change the world!
