My Dear Friend Paula~

Meet my beautiful Catholic homeschooling crunchy momma friend Paula. Paula and her husband Greg just welcomed their sixth child into the world last Saturday. What an amazing little blessing she is. Not only a blessing but a beautiful blessing with a full head of dark hair. Just like her momma. Here are a few of my favorite shots from her baby/henna party. Their home was filled with family and close friends, as we celebrated this new little life. Two weeks after celebrating I had the great privilege of photographing Paula's home water birth. What an amazing amazing gift it was. Just to witness Gods wonderful plan for life as it begins. Birth is one of those miracles that one may seldom get the chance to witness. A miracles that sends your emotions flooding with excitement, love, amazement, tears and happiness! Bursting joy of happiness and love. Thank you Greg and Paula. Allen and I are more than honored to be this little ones Godparents.

Nothing, and I mean, nothing, can compare to the blessing of being with a family to welcome a baby into the world. :) All of my mommy's hold a special place in my heart.
