Happy Mothers Day!!! I can’t express how important my mom has been in my life and still is. I know she is gonna see this post, so I am gonna brag on her a while.
I am an interesting person. My mom always called me unique. I guess that is a good way to describe me. Weird doesn’t work, odd, perhaps, but I think I like unique the best. I owe my mom tons for putting up with my uniqueness growing up. It was hard for her to punish me because I would dance, make crazy noises, or whatever I could to make her laugh so she couldn’t punish me. (Good idea, until she said “Wait till your dad comes home!”… yeah, then it sucked). I owe her tons for encouraging me to be who I am and loving me and not telling me that I needed to be anyone other then who I was. Words don’t really do justice to how she helped raise me with my pops and my other sibling. I think she is fantastic…
Okay! All that to say this – Maliya is cute! She was born on April 14th and Jake and I were able to photograph her on April 18th, just 4 days after she was born. Full of energy and hair, she was looking around the room cooing and looking cute. Her mom was there and looked a little exhausted. Maliya has two older sisters that Mom and Dad have to control, not to mention the attention a newborn needs. I am so honored and privileged to be able to record one of the first days of the, sure to be amazing, life of little miss Maliya. Enjoy the photos!
Oh… P.s. For all of you ladies who had a child, more power to you, but my Mom has you all beat. I was 13lbs right out of the oven. Broke one of her ribs… That ain’t no joke. My mom is my 5’2″ ball of fury!
