My favorite kind of friends are the ones with whom you can pick up right where you left off...every single time you see them. You might see them once a month or talk to them every day or they might live on the other side of the country, but spending time with them is happy and familiar and wonderful.
The Manwaring family is just this for me (and my kids). Sadly, they do live a whole country away from us, but they were here for a visit this week and I got to take their pictures.
This little guy isn't as little as I remember, but still just as wonderful...
And this little miss seems so grown up...
And the one on the way is sure to be just as wonderful...
This beautiful momma inspires me to be better in so many ways.
To cherish the good...
And embrace the not so good...
To teach them to explore...
and to play...
and to love...
And, I made her pose for some maternity shots...because we are friends and I can do that!
Loved seeing you! You are beautiful in every way!
