You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have, for instance.

When an almost three year old falls asleep on the way to the session, any parent knows the fall out of waking someone with 10 months of practice in their terrible twos.  I knew when I looked at Eden’s sweet little crying face I knew we were going to have to work change that frown into something her mom would want to hang on the wall. In these moments of my career, I am grateful for the on-the-job training of my own children. After much coaxing, a little discipline, and acting like a fool we finally got a smile! Something beautiful for the wall. My favorite is still the REAL life moments. Authentic moments. As you may have guessed this family had more sweet moments then UN-sweet ones.
