my girl

My girl. The girl that sits in the bathroom sink, watching me intently as I put on my makeup. While I'm looking in the mirror putting on mascara, she's grabbed my blush brush and is using it on her cheeks. At night she's still the baby in footed pajamas that I microwave bottles of milk for. My girl likes clean hands, and holds up her sticky fingers silently asking me to wipe them off for her. She likes to be chased, fakes coughs, and points at me and says "achoo" when I sneeze. She can spot a cat three houses down the street and quietly says "meow" to herself. She holds my finger as we s.l.o.w.l.y cross streets with her little steps. She pours me pretend tea and feeds her babydoll invisible food from a spoon. My baby blows kisses to me from her crib when I tell her "Night night. Wo ai ni." Every day she's different. Always growing. Always learning. Forever changing. But she'll always be my little girl.

  1. You seriously take such awesome pictures!! Maybe you should try to do a bit of freelancing on the side??? Then eventually drop your real job!!

  2. I agree with Julie! Drop the job, it's probably a drag anyway... We're ready to make an appointment, please let us know when you can work us in.

    By the way, I really do understand... She sure is growing and changing. But you are right, She will always be your little girl!
