I hear this alot. A parent of older children, seniors etc walks in and sees framed newborn images all over my living room waiting to be picked up. I see them look, a longing in their eyes and then they say “I wish”.
I know what is coming next, I have heard it so many many times. I wish for me too. I wish I had been doing photographing when my boys were little. I wish I had been photographing when Lauren and Zachary were little. I wish I had been photographing when Grant and Kara were little. I wish I had been photographing when Adam and Olivia were little.
Uggg you get the ‘picture’. It is so hard to go back and look at the pictures from when my boys were little that I have all stuffed in a box. Pictures where feet were covered up. Pictures where I spent more time looking for the outfit than focusing on the baby. My deep regret makes me run in the opposite direction and do for others what I wish I had. What I long for.
What I wish for.
I made myself cry….
