Children are a gift from God.  They are precious, each one in their own way.  I had the opportunity to photograph these three little beauties!  I love how each photograph shows their personality.  All three of them were different and capturing that difference is sometimes hard to do.  I love that I was able to bring them out of their shell of smile and say cheese!

     To those of you with little ones and even grown ones, I want to say cherish them!  They are a gift.  Yes, we must instruct them and even discipline them so that they know the right way to life, but our most important job is to Love.  I try to make it my goal to start and end the day on a love note!  I ask my children after bedtime prayer, what their most fun thing and most loving thing of the day were.  Almost always they say spending time with my family and loving with you and dad.  Spending time with your children is the best gift you can give them and while you are doing it you will realize what a gift it is to you.

     I pray that you all are filled with joy, peace, and the great grace of God.
