I meet new families regularly, they are welcomed in and I hope immediately feel a sense of warmth and comfort and not just from the heater and padded chairs but the atmosphere.

A few weeks ago now I welcomed a new family to my studio. Dad, Mum, Daughter and new baby. I came out the font to greet them and as I walked over I was greeted with smiles and lots of new baby love vibes.

I immediately got a felt comfort from them, they were calm, peaceful, gracious and patient. This new arrival had found herself a kind and gentle family to grow.

I had the most wonderful time with these beautiful strangers who brought their own atmosphere with them and welcomed me into it.

Their 1st daughter flew like a bird, danced, played animal games, enjoyed stories and soft toys while her new little sister slept and fed and slept and fed.

Togther we had a wonderful time and captured such precious moments.

Master E
My big boy, off to school in a few days.
Lover of Lego, you play it daily and create things far beyond your years.
Mumma’s boy, you always have a kiss and cuddle for me and only me.
You are a bottomless pit with food and always ask for your favourite sushi.
You love Math and are so exquisitive about the world and how things work, I love this about you.
You quite enjoy quiet time, you will happily sit and find wally in a book or ask me to read several books one after another.
I love your uniqueness, your sense of self and pride in who you are. I hope school doesn’t dim this little light you have.
Love you more than you will ever know.

Back together again, it’s amazing how some days you crave a break some space 5 minuites alone or bed time to arrive.
After two days away from my boys I couldn’t stop cuddling and kissing them both. They make my heart smile, I feel the beams gush out of my chest when I embrace them, I can feel it as I write this post just thinking about it.
Being a parent truly brings a love like no other.
