This has become one of my favorite images I’ve ever taken of Lila. She had no idea I was shooting this, and I was a few feet from her. She’s engrossed in a Halloween card that came for her in the mail today. The card is from a dear friend of ours, who is getting married in two days. TWO DAYS. She has a million things to get organized and finished for Saturday, yet she thought to send Lila a Halloween card, covered in specially bought Sesame Street stickers of the characters in costumes (which were a HUGE hit, by the way).
This was one of those times I silently gave thanks for whatever it was that made me pick up a camera. Because now I can give these moments I’ve captured to Lila. I can show her how much people love her, and how amazing our friends and family are. We are truly lucky to have the people in our lives that we do, and I will never be able to thank them enough.
She will likely never remember this moment, but I will never forget it.
Totally sappy and yet so totally true. ? I hope how you captured this moment for her and how well you represented it with words.
this isn’t the first time one of your posts made me cry, but OMG… i CANNOT WAIT to see you guys. i LOVE LOVE her little feet in this pic too!! XOXOXOXO + infinity
Made me a little teary eyed too. Beautiful Megan.
Super duper cute. I love catching them when they are not looking.
it’s so rare to see her so calm and focused on something like a card, she is such a little ball of energy! this is a great moment Meg – and she will thank you for it!
absolutely precious. i hope i get to meet her someday
