So I think it's safe to say this is my last outdoor session of the year! :-) Patty's oldest child was home from college so it was an all or nothing thing last weekend. It was dark, cloudy and 26 degrees with the windchill. This family definitely wins the Trooper Award! We quick grabbed some sibling and family photos and then they ran back to their van and came out one by one braving individual photos.
Such a sweet and amazing family! I've known Mary Rose and her mom for a couple years. Mary Rose was friends with my daughter Lily for two years in preschool. There are so many wonderful lessons to learn in life and being friends with Mary Rose has taught my Lily so many amazing things: compassion, perserverance, understanding and more. Mary Rose was born blind and has to learn to "see" the world through her other senses. After Lily first met Mary Rose, I saw her walking down our hallway with her eyes closed, touching the wall as she went along. I asked her what she was doing and Lily said, "I'm seeing what it's like for Mary Rose." And to this day, even though the two girls go to different schools and haven't seen each other since last June, every now and then Lily will be wearing a sequin shirt or be playing with something that has great texture and she'll think of her friend and say, "Mary Rose would like this." :-)
I really enjoyed this session, I hope we can meet up again, maybe under warmer and less rushed conditions.
