Welcome Ms. K - 15 days New

Here is our story....

I have known this family all my life...I grew up just down the street and as a child I spent many a days with them...playing Barbie's, dolls, going to the park, playing outside, eating over, sleeping over...being kids....

We giggled the other day because as kids we always asked each set of parents what was for dinner in a sly way to see which was the better menu for the night...lol...we always got the famous answer of "Stewed bugs and onions" OR "Poop on a stick"...both of us tell our own children that....

She comes from a family of 7 and I a family of 6 so the chaos of what comes with a big family, we embrace....

We may not see each other often but there is comfort in a childhood friend...there is a family connection that will never be lost...

This session reminded me of OHANA, which means family. Family means no one gets left behind or forgotten. 

This family has opened up their hearts and home to Ms. K and as you are reading this, know that she is greatly loved.

They wanted to do something special to mark Ms. K's arrival into their home, here are some pictures of our session together.

A ballerina in the making?

Family

She was an excellent subject, barely fussing and I can't wait to watch this little one grow.  I truly hope that she is yours forever because you couldn't ask for a better family to love her.

It was so nice to catch up and thank you for trusting me to create this beautiful memory for you.
