I’ve grown really close to this little lady and her mama. From the first time we ever spoke on the phone (more than 3 years ago and I was *very* pregnant w/ baby number 3), her mom and I just clicked. We get excited over the same things and I love that we can just start chatting and one idea leads to the next until we’ve created a totally unique theme for each one of her little girl’s birthday sessions. I love that I can say, “I wonder if we could…” and she finds some way to make it happen. I love to watch the two of them together because they are as close as I hope my own daughter and I are. I love the thought that I could one day be taking pictures when she turns 10…or even sweet sixteen. It feels amazing to be part of a tradition like this and I treasure that honor.
