The gift of beauty

As I mentioned before, adoption is messy. But it is also beautiful. Sometimes it feels like you wish that you could bottle the beauty so you don't forget. And then, someone with an artist soul does it for you! I had to make a separate post for the amazing photos that my dear friend Jess at Olive Avenue Photography captured of our family last summer with a Red Thread Session. These images still take my breath away and I am so grateful for the treasure they are.

First a throwback...Full family pic.  Red Thread Sessions, two years apart.
