I’ve been very unimpressed by these last portraits – time to get back on the picture-taking wagon!! Today’s picture was from a couple that I took this morning right after Audrey woke up. She almost always wakes up happy, waits for a quick diaper change and then sits up with a super proud look on her face – and especially proud if she is lucky enough to get pulled into a standing position. Most mornings Maggie sunggles her while I pad around the house taking care of morning business, grabbing a diaper from the other room, etc. Audrey spends this time squealing and doing the Happy Baby pose. When I shoved the camera in her face, instead of hugging and kissing her, Audrey looked at me like I’d lost it.
These last few Barry has been out of town and I am not joking when I say this: Single parenting is not for the weary. I miss my husband in a kazillion different ways and I’m pretty sure we’re all going to tackle him with hugs and kisses when he walks through the door. I could go on and on. I am a capable, strong woman, but having a partner in life/crime makes everything so much better.
Nighty Night.
