Meet Madelyn, the youngest of three beautiful little girls. She loves singing, picking flowers, purple jelly beans, butterflies, hide and go seek, playing in the dirt, feeling the grass between her toes, following after her sisters, and she absolutely LOVES having her picture taken.
"Bees!" she shouted, with equal parts fear and intrigue. She stood her ground until they buzzed away. "Come Nadia," she commanded as we headed off toward the barn. Once we got there she peered through every hole, shuffled through the dusty dirt piles, and glanced back every now and then to make sure that I was still snapping photos.
After all of the clover and buttercups, fence climbing, itsy bitsy spider, counting behind trees, and rolling in the grass, I had made a new friend. By the end of our session, she was full of snacks and exhausted from being the center of attention. She cuddled up with mom, kissed her belly (there's a baby boy in there) and dropped her head down on her shoulder. Being a star is hard work :)
