Happiness

Memories...so many with this family!  Friday night pizza night, Saturday morning sante fe runs (all though usually not after a Friday night get together) birthdays, trips to AZ, projects on the house, babysitting, lunch breaks with the office, Christmas parties...memories...so many with this family.  I share a lot of who I am with them...I've cried and laughed a lot, shared losses and celebrated good times.  So how do I describe this family to you...to describe what they mean to me...I'm at a loss for words but what I can do is tell you that I love them...I love how they relate to eachother.  I love that they found eachother in highschool.  I love that they are CRAZY about Hayley...crazy about my kids.  I love that they are a part of me.  They are a part of my happiness in life.  They just make me happy.  So, this is the Helwege family, a part of my family.

I think one of the things you are best at, and this might sound weird, but I'm going to go for it anyway, is people's hair. Sometimes it's the backlit sunlight (especially adorable baby fuzz), but usually it's the texture of the person's hair in your photos that I notice. You capture it perfectly. At the end of each one of your posts, I'm always thinking, man, I wish I had her hair!
