Yesterday I wrote a little something to Rocky for Father’s Day. I was in the middle of posting the link here, and was interrupted by Damian waking up. He had a runny nose earlier in the day, but we didn’t think much of it. He woke because he was having trouble breathing, sometimes gasping for […]

    Thanks Michelle, he is so special 🙂 Sarah, thanks! I am so happy to see it updated & able to use it again! Melanie, THANK YOU! That was so sweet of you to say. I wish I had more time to “do it all” but that makes me feel like the time I spend doing this is worth it! Thanks!

His eyes teared up as he spoke with conviction, “It’s like the best birthday I’ve ever had.” “Rocky, it’s not your birthday.” Then we laughed. I knew what he meant. He was on his way to buy the bike of dreams & was slightly enthusiastic. When I met Rocky, he had two things that meant […]

    Thank you, I feel very blessed! Thanks Michelle, I love that color combo! Wish I would have seen it!

My lovely little sister graduated from high school & we took pictures to celebrate.   Dear Abby, I was in third grade when you were born. I remember hoping you would share my birthday, but instead you arrived two days later. You had a flaky newborn nose & I was ecstatic to have a baby […]

    beautiful! and i love the bandaid on her foot! 🙂

  • Jessica Magee - June 11, 2011 - 11:08 am

    She is absolutely gorgeous!! I’m jealous of her long hair too, mine’s got the length but not the life. 😀 I love the love you two have, lots of sisters don’t have that. I’m glad to see you honor it.

    Andrea, I need to show you the video we took of when Abby first met her siblings at the hospital. Mom and I recently saw the video and it was so touching. Children are truly a “gift” from the Lord and we all have so much to be Thankful for!
    Love always………dad

    Thank you all so much, this was such a special project to me! We were definitely trying to avoid the typical “senior” look but still capture her youth… that’s why I loved the bandaid shot! Kristi, I didn’t know that, so cool! It was so cool to have such a good friendship with her & practice being a mommy 😀

  • denise nicole - June 25, 2011 - 8:27 pm

    Ohmygosh this is the sweetest post!!! I love how intimately you captured her personality!!! Absolutely gorgeous!!! What a beautiful relationship you have. This post tugs at my heart!!! God bless!
