Most times that I randomly run into Leah & Neil, I am surprised. And usually, that surprise involves their children – usually the blessing of another pregnancy! So I shouldn’t have been surprised when God blessed them with the biggest surprise of all : A BOY after FIVE GIRLS!! Oh, I couldn’t wait to photograph this sweet, calm, little one amidst the dancing, twirling, and giggles of his older sisters.
Once we had our bases covered, we let the girls explore a little bit to focus in on Baby Bellamy. I asked Leah in a small moment of quiet how she handles the chaos, noise, needs of six little people in the midst of everything else adults need to do. “The Lord somehow increases our capacity with each child He chooses to gift us.” And yes, sometimes Mom needs 20 minutes of quiet!
Leah + Neil – Thank you for continuing to come back and support my small business. It’s been an honor to document the growth of your family and each little one God has given you. And yes, everyone needs a Sedelle as a mini-mama to help corral everyone and deliver marching orders! (So does every photographer!)
All the best as your capacity continues to grow and I will prepare my heart to always be surprised by you and your amazing family,
Carrie
