Like all families out there, ours is very busy. Between all the obligations and commitments, I often worry that I’m missing important times with my family and when I see the very empty baby book that belongs to my third child, I cringe. The poor child has no documentation of his babyhood. I know he […]
The baby’s first day at school went well. Neither one of us cried very much. I feel good, I think he’s going to love his class and make some great friends. I am so excited to see what this year will bring! How are you all coping with the transition to the new school year? […]

This is one of my favorite maternity portraits. The mama floating in the water seems so dreamy and quiet. I have a framed gallery wrap of this in my studio and the printed version on canvas has been mistaken for a painting quite a few times.
