A Letter to My Daughter
To my beautiful three-year-old little girl,
I can hardly believe you are three. More so, I can hardly believe I am a mother to a three-year-old. (When did I go and become an adult?!) You are wise beyond your years and have seemingly been a little girl since you started walking. But this milestone seals the deal. You’ll always be my baby girl, my first born. But now you’re really a girl. You live in a fantasy land most of your day, talking amongst yourself and your miniature toys and you live to “spin” and wear “princesesses” dresses. Your imagination rivals your daddy’s and your independence is bursting at the seams with every passing day.
As the saying goes, the days are long but the years are short. You are so strong-willed and my patience wears thin with you more easily these days. Sometimes I blink and I’m arguing with a miniature 13-year old and I’m terrified of the future…but then you flash me your most coy smile and my frustration melts away. You are the perfect blend of your dad and I and you keep us laughing and on our toes every day. I am so incredibly proud to call you mine.
Love,
Mom

I think so, too 🙂 I hope she’ll always know how much she has been loved! Thank you for your kind comment.
These are gorgeous, just breath taking. Was that a self portrait in there? You should do a blog post on how to make a great self portrait!! I would love to do more of those.

Actually, Miranda, I turned my hubby into a human tripod 😉 He’s been my assistant in training for a few years now, so as long as he just keeps pressing the shutter, we find a decent amount of good shots amidst the hundreds 😉
These images of beyond gorgeous. What a great idea this project is. You child will truly treasure these photographs forever. Ps – is it really that green in Atlanta already? Lucky!
Vanessa, actually it’s greener! I even pulled out a little bit of green to give the images a softer feel…spring has definitely sprung in Atlanta although some days feel more like it than others 😉 Thank you for your message!
