To my children:

You sweet little boys. You are much too young to know about the horrible events that happened last Friday, and for that I am grateful. You don't know hate. You don't know sorrow. You haven't experienced loss. I want so badly to shield you from anything that could ever hurt you, and it breaks my heart to know that I can't. I see so much life and love in your eyes. You are so full of wonder and excitement. Some days I get frustrated and long for the days when I can send you to school, but mostly I just wish I could freeze you as you are and never let you go. I get scared sometimes that I am failing you. Am I teaching you to be kind? Am I teaching you to respect your elders? Am I being a good example? Are my words sometimes too harsh? I know I'm not a perfect mother, but I love you more than I ever thought possible. Your smiles and laughter brighten my days. When you're happy, I'm happy. I love to see you succeed, and try new things. I hope you can somehow know how much you mean to me, and how much I love you. You are my world.

Love, Mom

My boys at the temple {Salt Lake City, Utah- Children Photographer}

Jackson has been begging to go to the temple for quite some time now, and since we haven't made it to the one in Houston, we decided to show him where Mommy and Daddy got married! He loved it--especially the water fountains! ;)

Ari {Senior photographer- Springville, UT}

This gorgeous girl is my husband's cousin. She had some great ideas for her photos and I absolutely love how they turned out!

Little H is 1- Houston children and family photographer- Hermann Park

I just have to say that this little man was probably one of the most pleasant children I have ever photographed! He was just so content and cooperative, even though it was bedtime by the time we finished. What a sweet heart!

My water-lovin boy!

Love this face! haha
