All of these photos of Sarah and Maddison are amazing. They reach down and touch you deep in your heart. But this one is my favorite. Madison is such a great little model. She seems so comfortable in front of the camera. . .I hope you don't stop. The time when they are just brand new tiny little like this is so so short. Take all the pictures of them at this age you can get.

Congratulations! I hope Sarah is a sleeper :)

What a beautiful "Librodo" type of portrait. They are so beautiful, but there must be such pain behind those smiles. Seeing a family personally touched by the harshness of suicide bombers and war makes it seem even closer than ever.
