[ Photos by Rachael King Johnson. ]
They are three of the best surprises.
They are in my dreams and my prayers.
They are so uniquely themselves it blows my mind.
They are written on my arm + forever in my heart.
They are LOUD + hilarious.
They are forging relationships amongst + between themselves.
They are very sweet (when they are not being very mischievous).
They are the best gifts I have ever been loaned.
They are growing too fast.
And they are pretty stinking adorable.

Our neighbour, Rachael (of luckygirl wedding photography), is responsible for these amazing shots. In fact, I'm also going to blame her for making me cry yesterday when she casually emailed me these photos. Because suddenly, I am painfully aware of these three ladies and their perfectly-captured characters. I am painfully aware of how much I have not been living in the moment these days AND I AM MISSING IT. Suddenly, I am achingly grateful. For the girls. For the days. For the laughter. For our neighbours. For right now.
Thank you for the photos. Rachael, it's like you wrapped up a slice of the-best-parts-of-this-life and tied it with a bow. Thank you for catching our moments. (Love you. xoxo)
Best. Gift. Ever. If anyone tells you there is no value to fantastic photographers + photographs... punch them. Seriously.

Today: Another adventure in healing! Along with my sore paws, I have been having a wee little problem with my back. I am off to see the best physio/pilates person in the city for this kind of predicament and it's so important to me that I could use any extra good vibes that are kicking around. And in return - there will be some new stuff in my ARTSHOP on Friday. ;) Coffee.
GO!
