As some of you know, I wear many different “hats”, as most professional woman do these days. But my most favorite “hat” to wear is being a “Step Mom” to my sweet (most of the time) lil Madison.
Sid and I are not “legally” married so I guess she isn’t “legally” my stepdaughter, but that doesn’t matter in the least to me. Sidney and Madison are the two loves of my life. I love her so much just as if she was my very own. I never had been in a relationship with someone with children, but I sure have been missing out before these two came into my life. I am so grateful and appreciative to have them love me as much as I love them. The last 3 years of watching her change and grow into quite the little lady, has been such the adventure. As I’m typing this right now, she is sitting in my lap, looking at her “pretty pictures” and wants to go outside and blow more bubbles. Sometimes she is up for a shoot, and sometimes she is not. I think when she grows up she will think of me and a camera as one. However she thinks of me when she is older, I hope she knows how much I love her and that I have enjoyed all the times, like these, that I spend with her. I also hope that she enjoys all of the images that I have taken of her throughout her life. I’m basically documenting her childhood and one day her adulthood, so who wouldn’t like that?
Well, a 4 1/2 year old sometimes doesn’t like it. I sometimes get the HAND in my camera with a sassy attitude to boot.![]()
But with that being said, she now wants to go outside and have me shoot some more “pretty pictures” of her.
She also likes to say “Action” each time she hears the shutter go off. Well… I guess I need to take this opportunity while I can……
“ACTION!”
