44/52. twenty nineteen
“a portrait of my daughter, once a week, every week, in 2019”
Lilian
on halloween dressed up as Mal from the descendants with some of her besties before heading out to go trick or treating
when i first began this 52 project in twenty thirteen (here), i wanted it to be all about Lily (of course) but i also wanted it to be about photography
i made it a point to only post pictures taken with my nikon or canon
Lily was so small then
she wasn’t in school and we would spend the days together going on adventures or just playing at home and in the yard
there was time for photography with the nikon then
at the end of every week i would have so many pictures of Lily to try to choose from (it was always so hard)
throughout the years, as she has grown and has started school and after school activities full time, it has been more challenging to keep this project going with the same photography quality
there are weeks when i go through my phone (shameful) looking for a picture of Lily for this project
like this past week
there were none
life is busy
Lilian is busy
so here she is this week with a group of friends
and this is who she is these days
a busy almost ten year old who is fun, creative, loving, honest, active and who enjoys spending time with her friends
it’s a hard transition for this mama heart but this is who she is and who she will be more and more as time goes on
this is her last week as a nine year old (she turns ten on thursday) and i am trying to figure out how the past decade went as fast as it did
happy monday friends
