I've made it through one year of motherhood! It may sound like something you hear often, but it's so true - it's been the most wonderful year of mine and Edmond's lives. It's a little after midnight. Edmond and I sang Happy Birthday to Madeline as she slept in her crib. As I watch my little angel dream away, I can't help but wonder what I did in a past life to deserve such a gift. When I'm around Madeline or even think about her, it's like there's an unbreakable line around my heart, and she's the one always tugging at it - letting me know she's forever my baby girl.
I think I became a photographer because I love the way one moment in time could make you feel just by looking at it. It's amazing how a single image can take you back to everything. This is Madeline's very first picture. My first moment with her. The first time I held her. The first time I saw her. One single image.
Of course what's a 1st birthday without a 1st birthday party? I couldn't find anything that I liked when searching for invitations for Maddy's party, so I designed one myself! My family kept complaining that they don't have any pictures of Madeline, just what they see on the Internet. I think I made them happy when they got this in the mail :)
