I'll be cliche...it seems like it was just yesterday when we...
I hold onto those precious memories so tightly, I sometimes worry if I will squeeze the joy out of them.
*You* are pure joy. Even in your sassiest moments (and lord knows, you have plenty of those), we can't help but to smile...
That giant image above will join the other two canvases from here and here. I feel so blessed that you've allowed me to create this tradition and I hope you'll continue to humor me for at least another couple of years ;-). (Oh, and let's be sure to thank Daddy for snapping some of just you and I together ;-).
You are the most beautiful person I've ever met. You have more love in your heart than I've ever seen. You are clever, and intelligent, and witty, and creative, and brave. How did we get so lucky, Amry? Why did you choose our family? It is such an incredible honor to be your mother. I don't think you'll ever comprehend how much you made our dreams come true. I love you and I wish you the happiest birthday in the world, my princess.

This Thanksgiving, I'm thankful for...
- running water
- laundry soap
- any kind of soap (that has to be the only thing keeping me well)
- kids that want to snuggle when they're sick
- my husband because I have been LOST without him while he's been sick
- that it's only a virus
- Cloves, oranges, and rosemary, because I needed *something* to freshen up this house today...
I hope you all are having a wonderful Thanksgiving, warm and close to friends and family and good food.
Much love,
~Michele
I spent the most delightful morning at their house a few weeks back. Her session was all things sweet and simple and easy and cuddly. In proofing her pictures, my gosh, she reminded me SO much of my daughter as a newborn (her room even has owls, too!). I'm very much looking forward to seeing how this little cutie grows up over the years.
Some sort of lovely stomach bug is making its rounds through my family right now. There will be a bit of a delay in returning calls/e-mails at this time. Thanks for understanding and hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

While working on their holiday card design today, I realized I had promised a part 2 to this post. There were definitely too many fav images to tell their story in just one post. So here you go!!!
[Note: If you book a 2012 family photo session now, you can still qualify for a holiday mini session. But you should probably hurry because I only have a few openings left. Also, if you had a session with me this year and you wanted to order holiday cards, please contact me THIS week! I won't be able to process holiday card orders any later than that.]
