happy, happy birthday…

it was a pleasure to photograph this birthday girl last night {today is actual birthday…happy birthday!!}. I photographed her 6 years ago on her 6th birthday…time flies so fast and our children grow faster each day. we don’t realize how much they grow each day until we look back at pictures…even those taken a month ago…and see the baby faces that changed before our eyes. savor every moment…

i just smile when i look at this…we were heading to lunch and i turned around in the car and saw this! I love how Ava has her sweet little fingers wrapped around her big brother’s dirty fingers. ohhh…makes me happy to realize how much they adore each other!

this picture is another that makes me smile…Ava got hurt and Domenick was making her better! How lucky is she to have two boys that adore her!
