Last Saturday we ventured out with our children to Beus Pond where we met Brad (our photographer) so that we could take "family" photos. We figured we'd get through the dog shots first because those seemed they would be the hardest. (and they were, believe me) Gage couldn't keep his tongue in his mouth for... oh i dont know....ONE second. Because the park was packed the dogs would look everywhere BUT the camera. While my husband became frustrated I couldn't help but enjoy the time we were having; Brad kept cooing "Gage, Gage...up here Gage" as if he was speaking to a toddler...that brought to my attention that in the years to come Jon and I will look back on this time and marvel at the days when we only had Attika and Gage to worry about. One day a couple of kids will fill our lives and our home with a lot more responsibility and chaos. Even though I look forward to that time in our lives, I am grateful for the time we have with one another now; I am very pleased and fulfilled with the little spirits we take care of. We are complete for now.
