I met a wonderful family recently – Mom, Dad and two young men. Mr. M is 19 and Mr. J is 17. All I can say is WOW! They were really great to work with and, I think, by the end they even kind of liked me! ;) It’s so hard for me to imagine that my children will one day grow up and have their own lives. Complete independence. Well, I can hope right?
These two guys answered a question for me and I think it speaks volumes….
Crystal: “So, what are you guys gonna do when I’m done torturing you (ahem, I mean taking pictures of you)?”
Them (in unison): “Go out”
GO OUT? Where? What time will you be back? Who will you be with??? Your parents just let you LEAVE???? Of course, I didn’t actually say this out loud – considering the oldest is already living away from home and attending college and the youngest can drive, etc, etc. But, being the parent of a 3 year old and an 11 month old – it was very hard for me to have some restraint. Oh my gosh….. how will I ever let go!
The youngest, the baby of the family – but no longer a baby at all. Handsome and sweet – with a great smile. (And that’s Oreo with him)
Older brother – GREAT eyes right? He also had the coolest yellow shoes – very stylish! :)
Here’s everyone. I’m so glad that mom organized our session. Now she will have some GREAT images of her boys and the family – and I will have fond memories of a fun-filled afternoon! :)
So, I’m off tomorrow for a very special trip to CANCUN with three wonderful ladies who have been friends of mine since the EARLY days (I’m talking 80′s fashion, first loves, pre-baby, etc. etc.). We planned this trip in August and it’s so hard to believe it’s already here, but I’m BEYOND excited! I hope to enjoy lots of laughs, have some fun in the sun, and get some much needed rest. I’ll be back Monday to finish out the season and can’t wait to spend time with my family and friends again.
