Take it from me, as the mom of a pre-teen and pre-pre-teen. It goes so.dang.fast.

My youngest is officially halfway through her schooling years with me. What a WILD realization that is.

Please don’t put off taking portraits with your children. Please don’t put it off until you lose those five pounds you want gone, or the economy gets better, or it rains cats and dogs. These kids will be out of our house before we realize it, and then it’s too late.

One moment they’re born, the next they’re blowing out 5 candles, and then the next, they’re looking at colleges.
