Congrats! We are thrilled for your family.
Congratulations Melissa. What a lucky little spirit!
Melissa, that was beautiful! Congratulations to you and your beautiful family! I have three beautiful wonderful children all grown, happy, and married. One of them is Nicole Klingler. I thought you might like to know that besides her own family,you were a major sorce of inspiration to her with your amazing photography. Back when Nicole was just getting started with photography I went to a yard sale of a delightful person. We got chatting I had told her of my two daughters intrest in photography and she told me of hers as well,then she mentioned she was looking for some one to do their family photos. That’s when I told her our whole family admired your beautiful work so I told her of your photo site and thought she would absolutly love you. That was Tiffiny Howard! We all loved the family photos you did for them! Couldn’t leave off without the mention of what a beautiful writer you are as well, congratulations again from Renae and the Bowen family!
Seriously, this made me cry! I have three and its such a HUGE blessing. It just adds a little more fun to the mix. Congratulations.
Melissa – Congrats! Is there anything you don’t do? Truly an artist. I’m sure #3 will be as beautiful as the first 2…Congrats!
simply beautiful! and congratulations!

And the perfect cake, and the not-so-perfect attempt to making Martha Stewart decor. Oh wait…what did I miss? That’s...
