“Hush little baby don’t say a word, mama’s gonna buy you a mockingbird…” my two year old sang as my 9 month old was screaming her head off in the car. Somehow her consoling was not having the effect she had hoped for. It made little miss tired and hungry scream even louder. I looked at my husband and shrugged “one day it will be quiet again.” Sometimes the constant commotion and chaos of two children under 2 makes me a little crazy and I just can’t wait to get them down for a nap. However, having two little miracles running around my house is something I wouldn’t trade for the world-even if I do have to invest in a pair of hearing aids when I am older.
Many people know newborns are my favorite subjects to photograph…. just looking at pictures of newborns brings me to place of total peace and tranquility. New life is miraculous and awe-inspiring. Little baby Roderick was one of sleepiest, most quiet newborns I have had to date. Although one day he will find his voice (if he already hasn’t) I know his mama wouldn’t trade it for anything.
