There are some people that come in to your life and you just know God sent them. Do you know what I mean? The friends that just get you and you can't live without. Your husband. Strangers that were there to help when you needed it most.
I have some people like this in my life but not many. I don't think you can have that many people like that. They are there for a reason. They fill a void. People God just knows you need.
What is so interesting about my session tonight is that this family feels this way about ME. They feel that God brought me to them when they needed me most and that I was the perfect person for them at that time. (I say this only b/c they've said it to me, not b/c I am a huge ego-maniac!)
The best part though? It is really the other way around.
They are truly an incredible family. And not just one part of them. ALL of them. I feel as if I've known them my entire life. In fact, if I could just be sucked into their family and be the fifth sister it would be so awesome. They are the most loving and giving family I have ever met. When one sister needs them they all drop everything to do her laundry or clean her bathroom or do her grocery shopping and care for her house or her husband or her dog or whatever. They buy each other make-up and clothes and furniture b/c they know each other so well and trust each other so completely they don't blink to hand over the credit card.
It really is awesome.
And the blessings they have bestowed on me are still raining down so hard that I can't help but feel utterly undeserving.
I have seriously fallen in love with this family and felt so honored to be able to capture these four girls and their mom tonight... laughing. And happy. And joyful.
Maria, Sharon, Lisa, Julie and Barbara... thank you for tonight. Thank you for everything. And thanks for the ice cream!
My favorite! I am seriously in love with this photo! The lines are SICK! LOVE IT!
Thanks ladies! Truly. Thank you.

Did I mention how many sessions I have this week? OMG. Seven sessions in six days. And maybe an extra one tomorrow of the daughter of one of the ladies from above!
I need to write a post soon about my life. About how two years ago we were barely surviving and just how much this business has blessed our life. About how I'm working really hard to find balance in my life and by hiring Angie I think I'm on the exact right path. About how AWESOME blogging is. Seriously. Awesome.
But that will all have to wait b/c it's 11pm and I have more work before I can call it a day!
