I know I am supposed to be sharing some photos from the great sessions I had at the end of last year, but I just had to do one more of this little guy.
Ari in the morning+ my camera + the perfect light coming through our front door + lightroom = My Happy Place. Simple as that.
We are on week 4 of Todd being gone during the week and to be perfectly honest, it’s not so fun. He is a wonderful husband and father who does a ton around the house to help out and him not being here is making things a little stressful. Ari & I cried when we dropped him off at the airport yesterday and at least 5 times a day I hear from each of the kids, “I want my daddy”. But..I do know though that is nothing and I really shouldn’t complain. My good friend Wendy is a military wife and I know she is laughing at me when I complain. Her husband is deploying this week this week and he wont be able to come home on weekends like Todd.
Yesterday morning, the house was a mess. There were dishes to be done, laundry to be folded, phone calls to make, business stuff to be done, and the thought of all of it overwhelmed me, especially knowing that I am on my own until Friday night. Ari was looking out the window waiting for Zoe to come home and I decided to pick up my camera. As soon as I picked up my camera all the other stuff melted away. After getting some pictures of him looking out the window, I opened up the front door and had him sit tight there and chatted with him. This was one of those times when he was more than happy to look at the camera as long as I kept showing him the pictures I took. The result of those few minutes..my favorite pictures of Ari..ever.
