Oh, sweet Everett, you made us work for all the sleepy newborn pictures in Greenville SC that we took at this session.

At just 6 days new you were powering through your first growth spurt. Your mommy was so tired that half the session’s images were a complete surprise to her 😉

And your daddy was a champion rocker and cuddler and newborn spotter.  I think I may have offered him a job as my assistant.

But despite all these obstacles, there was joy in the room.  You, long awaited baby, were here.  The one they had hoped for and prayed for and cried over.

See your mommy and daddy weren’t sure that you would ever come to be.  There was a long road walked before these even longer nine months as they waited for your arrival.

And despite all the changes you’d created and lack of sleep in those six days, never have two more grateful parents looked down at a baby as adoringly as you, Everett.

You are blessed to have such wonderful parents, sweet boy.  And I am blessed to see them love you.
