Yesterday.

Yesterday was three years since we said goodbye to our then third baby. We never saw her face. She never got a name. We don't even know for sure that she was a girl. What we do know is she's in the arms of Jesus. And healing will come.

take what you can get.

today's goal was to get pictures of all three kids together. decent pictures. not everyone looking at the camera, but at least everyone somewhat happy. no fingers in noses or grumpy faces or evidence of arguing, just happy together. 

this is as close as we got. i'll take it.

i did, however, manage to get some pretty decent individual pictures. miss mya already had her pictures done a few weeks ago so i wasn't too worried about her.

and then there are these two. one usually has nostrils flaring and glaring eyes from the intense sensitivity to sunlight and the other seems to still be in the awkward smiling stage that's been going on for like three years now. i usually just have to make them laugh and snap away.

individual pictures seem to turn out a little better since i can focus on one face at a time.

i adore this one.

 i think he looks very much like jerry here. lucky boy.

my sweet girl.

this begins my most favorite series of pictures...ever.

all three.

hello, beautiful.

black and white.

for the longest time, i have not been able to post anything with pictures due to blogger telling me i was out of space.
i decided to just give a whirl again today.
well, whatcha know?

deciding whether to step in or not.

if i don't move, will it still be cold?

always so serious.

this was her attitude pretty much the whole time.

she was fascinated by her feet sinking.

he seriously looks so much older to me now.
