Sometimes I can hardly believe that this woman... this supermama of 4 kiddos... was the same little cousin that used to follow me around our farm in Iowa when we were little and sass me by saying, "You're not my friend anymore." (and then change her mind 60-seconds later). :) Or the 18-year old girl that went to Alaska with me one summer to work and experience that amazing land.
I remember the day she was born and seeing her at the hospital as just a tiny little newborn. And now she's a supermama. And my friend.
I enjoyed doing their family portraits again this fall in Iowa when I did some travel photography there.
