The end of last year was crazy busy for me, trying to wrap up all my client work as well as prepping for Christmas before having a baby. Somehow in the busyness, my sweet daughter missed out on her special birthday session. I felt really, truly awful, but I had to recognize that I just can’t do it all and sometimes, things like this need to wait. In the New Year I was photographing some special items for my sister (shout out to Baby in Vogue, her gorgeous Etsy shop!) and Kyara modeled some pieces for us. I just adore the resulting images and wanted to share them here with you, as well as a note to her. One day I hope to collect all the birthday posts I do for my babies, and give them to them in an album.
Kyara, you embody the term ‘pure of heart’.
You are a kind, sweet, loving, thoughtful and empathetic soul.
You love to make others happy, even if it means not having something you want.
You are a Daddy’s girl, but always come to Mumma when you’re hurt.
You are motherly, yet surprisingly, not bossy.
You are emotional and imaginative.
You are beautiful, inside and out.
You are smart and funny.
You are loved.
On your sixth birthday, you wanted nothing more than to be home with your family and your very best friends. It was so beautiful to watch your face light up with joy throughout the day, to hear you giggling uncontrollably, to listen to you praying to the LORD with heartfelt thankfulness before bed. We are so blessed that we can call you our daughter! XO Daddy and Mumma
*sob* these posts always make me tear up! Well said again Tam… she is such a sweet soul. We love you to death Keeks, you are beautiful inside & out!! XO Auntie Kailee & Uncle Liam
