Today marks three months since Kate was born. Last week I turned thirty-one years old. There are so many years between us, but most of the time it feels like we’ve know each other forever. With yesterday being Mother’s Day, I had some time to reflect on the three who make me a mother. I am so grateful to have them in my care. It’s such an awesome responsibility to love and teach children and I often times fall short. I’m so lucky to have a mother who is one of my best friends who taught me from the very beginning how to mother, and continues to do so to this day.
Thank you to my friend Jessica Kettle, who came and took some pictures of our family and Kate and I. What a gift to have a tangible memory of us, as we are, right now. Family pictures to come.
beautiful pictures and happy birthday!

So true Leah. Love these picture. What little angels you have.
I think she’s definitely your daughter, she looks so much like you! Gorgeous and such a treasured memory for her to have forever of her beginnings with her beautiful mama.
I’m in LOVE with these pictures. I can’t wait to see the rest of them. Yep, Kate looks the most like you out of the whole bunch. She’s so adorable. I want to hold her!!!!!

It makes me sad that I haven’t even snuggled with this sweet girl yet. Hurry and come visit us!!! Such wonderful pictures and beautiful room! I love the hankies tied in the back.

Oh my goodness…far too long since we’ve seen you all. Can’t believe Kate is already three months! Why can’t we figure out how to bottle time up so they don’t grow so fast??? Love these pics! Can’t wait to see more!
