A Brothers Love…

Filed Under: Family, Photography Tagged With: carsyn, dustyn

A Brother is a special gift

Sent from God above

For us to cherish daily

And fill them up with love

In the beauty of a brother

It’s so plain and easy to see

Just how wonderful they make your life

And how they were meant to be

Now what is it that makes a brother

It’s quite difficult to say

Except he is the reason

Why your sun shines everyday

 

–Paris

I used my new FREE lightroom preset on all of these photos.

Good news: we are going TODAY to pick up Carsyn’s Stroller and Stander. I am so excited!! I can not wait to cruise him around in his stroller instead of carrying him all the time or trying to prop him up in a regular stroller. Bad news: Dustyn has been a little sick with a fever the past few days. BLAH! Oh and we may be getting hit by a big hurricane this weekend. Joy! Not!

    Oh the quote is so lovely. I hope my son has a brother some day. I just love the focus on Carsyn's sweet little hand and his lashes with the negative space is so precious. And Dustyn's eye so curious. I can tell he is smiling! Lovely, lovely post Sarah.

Forgot I never posted the photos from Prestyn’s Forgot I never posted the photos from Prestyn’s field trip to the pumpkin patch. His favorite part was feeding the bunny rabbits, he really wants one for a pet. His least favorite part was the corn maze. He ended up going in with his teacher and a few friends, they got lost and had to be rescued. He said he will never go in there again. 🤣

She lost her top tooth this morning while brushing her teeth. All of a sudden she stopped then turned her head and spit the tooth out. I was cracking up. She keeps me on my toes.

Carsyn’s first day of school a few days late. Th Carsyn’s first day of school a few days late. The teachers say he seems happy to be back. This would technically be his 8th grade but we will probably hold him back a few years in middle school before we move him up to high school. Of course they are “virtual” tomorrow and possibly Friday because of the hurricane/tropical storm. Then Labor Day on Monday. So he probably won’t be back again until Tuesday.

He committed to working out and bulking this Summer and made some huge gains. Swipe to see his last day of school photo in June. We are so proud of him.
