I read a quote this morning that so applies to the adorable Miss "R". It reads:
"The elastic heart of youth cannot be compressed into one constrained shape long at a time." ~ Mark Twain
If this quote doesn't apply to this little tot, than I don't know what does!
This little girl holds a special place in my heart. She was my first official client when I started my little photography business just over a year ago. And boy did she give me a workout back then!!! Two at the time, I had never photographed such an energetic child!
Well let me just say, that a year hasn't changed anything! She's even MORE energetic now! And she talks. It was all we could do to keep up with her today. She's constant motion. She could care less about looking at the camera and getting her picture taken. She just wants to run and explore, and run some more!
I thought I was going to have a nervous breakdown as she ran along the edge of the water and the little paths that dropped off on the sides .... I felt like such a worry-wort! But her Mommy is amazing. She takes it all in stride and keeps up with Miss "R" stride for stride AND she's pregnant with baby number 2!!! I will say that I was pretty proud of myself for keeping up with Miss "R" as well today. It's no small feat. (Course, I came home and took an hour nap afterward, but we won't tell anyone that).
I hope that Miss "R"s Mommy and Daddy like profiles, cause we got alot of those today. She just wasn't interested in looking at me at all. Shoot ... I was happy just to get some shots that were in focus!! It was like trying to photograph a speeding car!!!

I would have given my left arm (not my right one, cause I need it) if she would have looked at me for this photo. Just a quick glance would have been perfect... But I love it anyway. She has the most gorgeous red curls. They just glow in the light.
