I love what I do, and here's one of the many reasons why: We've met so many amazing people in the 7 1/2 years we've lived in Nashville, but life is busy for all of us. Taking pictures of some of my favorite people is a great excuse to spend time together. This is a friend I've known for many years now. The best word I can use to describe her is "encourager." (My spell check highlighted that - is it not a word? If it's not, it should be.) She has the gift of encouragement probably more than anyone I know - always knowing the right words to say during a difficult time, always there to give support when it's needed and praise when it's deserved, and always ready with words of wisdom for nearly every struggle known to moms. How I love the way her brain works! We used to be in Bible study small groups together, but for the past year I haven't gotten to see her nearly often enough. This weekend we got to spend a whole afternoon together, just her and me, and her husband, and her 3 kids. Good old fashioned quality time. These kids are so much fun - from the sweet, responsible first-born to the free-spirited middle child to the adorable youngest who is quite a charmer. All full of personality and beautiful smiles.
The hardest part about taking pictures of this middle child is narrowing down which pictures to keep. She has so many expressions, so much personality bubbling out of that tiny body!
It's so fun to see siblings who actually like each other...
And parents who like each other too. I'm pretty sure these two still like each other a lot...
Fun afternoon with a fun family!
