some people just have them.

i hope that people see growth with my family. not just in how much the kids literally grow, but in how we grow closer to each other with the years and the experiences we have as a family. i think it’s a really neat thing to see actually, in ourselves and in others. i photographed this family a couple of years ago; it was so neat to meet with them again and to see how their family has grown, literally and figuratively.

every time i met with casey it makes me feel sad that we weren’t closer when we lived right by one another. i appreciate the way she feels about things, how she sees the world, and her scope on life and progression. if perspective, compassion, imagination, and understanding are genetic, i hope all of her children inherit those traits from their gorgeous mother.

i know they inherited her eyes; no doubt about it:

the tie, which tied (pun intended) everything together gets a little extra love, because i loved the color pop. 🙂

if patience, mild-mannered-ness, open-hearted-ness, and  warmth are genetic traits then these babies inherited them from their dad, jr.

not sure the gene pool for these two, but i feel it is safe to assume it was a really good one. i mean look at them? gorgeous.
