I can not wait for tomorrow night so saw a BIG farewell to 2008. This year has stunk on nearly every level. I didn't even mail my regular Christmas cards and letters as there wasn't a lot of good news.
From the tornados to the floods that took my sisters house and all the little stuff in between...Jules having cancer, my roommate's dog getting hit and killed by a car, Luke's mom's cancer being back...it sure can be overwhelming.
2009 is going to be better, I just know it!
I've been doing a lot of reflecting this morning. I got a call yesterday afternoon for another NILMDTS session. The couple delivered beautiful Seth Wyatt a little after midnight and I went in to photograph them around 3am.
It's so very sad and really gets into my head after and rattles things up. It's so very important in the healing process for the families that I am grateful I am strong enough to do the session. In the words of co-founder Sandy Puc, 'We can't stop this from happening but we can give these families a gift to help them heal.'
I feel fortunate to be able to help these families through such a hard time. Please check out the website www.NILMDTS.org and let me know your thoughts. Our upcoming Hot Tots and Cool Kids session will be tied into NILMDTS with the session being donated to the charity. I'll be including info in our upcoming newsletter as well as postcards going out soon.
Please give your little ones a BIG hug for me :-)
