Baby Luke

This precious nugget of snuggle entered the world at home just seven days before his modeling debut,
Photobucket
and there really wasn't much more pride possible
than what he was surrounded with from that divine moment on.
Photobucket

His family beams and kisses and loves and whispers,
Photobucket
wrapping him gently,
Photobucket
gathering him naturally closer and closer into them.
Photobucket

And once again, I watched, taking just a minute every now and again to rest my hand on my own swelling belly, a miracle unfolding within.

Photobucket
Oh, these pictures are just glimpses of these irreplaceable, undeniable wonders,
these phenomenons, these heavenly marvels,
Photobucket
attempts to cement forever these precious
Photobucket
newborn sensations,
delicate breaths, subtle flutters and blinks as he is falling back into the peaceful oblivion.
Photobucket

Oh, Baby Luke, you're adored.

Baby Cohen

I remember just a few hours after my sweet baby girl was born, laying in a daze of adoration and awe, holding, touching, tracing her perfect nose, the pucker of rosebud lips, murmuring new life songs, under, around her chin, and up fuzz curves of her cheek to the soft folds of her ear, taking my palm and laying it behind her head, pulling her wholeness into me again.

My friend called as I memorized my daughter, and after she heard the story, the details, the burning questions answered and healthy report given,
in her precious love and anticipating the birth of her own sweet first, she asked me,
"What is your favorite part, what can you just not stop kissing?"
Photobucket

Oh, sweet friend, the answers are endless.
They remain endless, even years later.

And, such, is motherhood.
I heard it said,
It is to decide, forever, to have your heart go walking outside your body."

Spending the afternoon with Baby Cohen was sweetness swaddled.
Photobucket
His beautiful mother tender and radiant and calm,
Photobucket
swaying and rocking him in the way he'll always know to be only hers,
Photobucketmaking secret momma sounds softly in her ear,
lacing, brushing, newborn bangs carefully through her fingertips.
Photobucket

And, even so very new,
Photobucket
I watched his favorite place always be tucked away, hidden in his momma and daddy's hold.
Photobucket
The two of them, so clearly, so glowingly illuminated by total love,
dreams fulfilled,
Photobucket
dreams to come.

Oh, Baby Cohen, my camera just wouldn't stop clicking.
Photobucket
You're just so, so sweet.

Jinn + Family

Jinn called me because her precious babies are just growing too fast,
Photobucket
their yummy rolls slimming too quickly,
Photobucket
their gummy smiles fading as the pearlies make their way through.
Photobucket
She called me asking to capture these moments of babyhood, their full cheeks,
Photobucket
their sweet curls,
Photobucket
their innocent pondering,
Photobucket
their wet kisses,
Photobucket
their home,
their life.
Photobucket
Oh how we mommas understand this, celebrations of every little milestone, triumphs of time passing, bittersweet, yes, but so, so sweet.
And so we spent the afternoon together, their momma, beaming papa and not-for-long babies.
Photobucket

Thank you, Jinn, for letting me join your family for a time.
Sweetest, sweetest little girls you have.
