mary + tripp ((engaged))

mary and tripp are all kinds of sweet and we loved spending the afternoon with them. she’s a classic beauty – that skin, that hair. ridiculous. she lights up when he pulls her close and our cameras couldn’t get enough of a love like this.

our first halloween

we had ghost shaped french toast that was white with powdered sugar and had chocolate chip eyes. yes, i realize this is like having dessert for breakfast but the hunts are in the business of celebrating these days and it was our first halloween. before every bite chris sang, who ya gonna call? and the girls yelled in response, ghostbusters, as they gobbled up every last sugary morsel.

as i watched them an unexpected wave of sadness washed over me. i was struck by the fact that my daughters are 3 1/2 and 5 1/2 and this is the first halloween that i’ve gotten to spend with them. i’ve already missed out on so much – 5 years of costumes and trick or treating and pumpkin flavored pancakes. my joy suddenly got swallowed up in all that i’ve missed out on and i couldn’t see the gifts at my kitchen table. and then, a familiar voice..big sister’s. mama? yes. i love this family. what perfect timing for the most tender of mercies. exhale. i know that this is how god intended it to be for us. he did not choose me for those halloweens, he chose me for this one. and this holiday, i get to be the keeper of my daughters’ memories and the witness to their stories. i smiled and sprinkled a little more powdered sugar on their ghosts for good measure.

hold on tight girls. we’re going to do this thing called holidays and family time and celebrating right. and we’re going to do it together.
