Nance Kidwell - The pictures are absolutely precious. I am a friend of Gabriel’s grandma Deb who shared these great pictures with us. What a perfect way to remember how beautiful new babies are and how lucky we are to have them in our lives. I love the pictures of the feet. I took one of my son’s when he was only a couple months old as I knew they would never be that tiny again. Of course I was right as now grown he wears a size 14.

Since late last year we’ve all been anticipating the […]

Behind the scenes with Blue

“It is prosperity that gives us friends, adversity that proves them.” ~ Unknown I told Blue back in December that someday I’d blog about him after I took this photo of him.
