The Colbie Caillat song, Capri is just so beautiful. It's so simple and sweet and a little bit addicting. {I've had it one replay almost the entire time I've edited this session.} I know, I know. I am a total sap for all humans that are tied to my Grandmother and Grandfather. Let's face it. We got hooked up in the DNA department. I'm not shy, I'm not embarrassed and I'm certainly not conceded. I'm just honest. We have good genes. However, once you see how gorgeous my cousin looks in these maternity photographs, you would have known that to be fact without me boasting. I've said it before, anytime someone in this family gets engaged or married, has a baby, has a health scare {or anything in between} we all become a little bit gushie and emotional. Maybe...I say we all become emotional because I become emotional and maybe I like to think that the rest of the Wirth descendent's woman are with me. Regardless, I couldn't help getting a little teary eyed over my cousin giving us the news via hand written letter at our annual vacation spot. I couldn't help getting teary over finding out she was having a girl!!! Yes! So, I certainly lost a few tears over editing this session. Why? I just simply love Elizabeth. Seeing her SO happy and the twinkle in her eye when she talks about her baby girl and the way that her wonderful hubbers looks at her, doesn't it just get you? Right in the ticker? I have memories that go so far back with my cousins that I can't even remember them all perfectly. Countless vacations, family parties, the "kid table" jokes{that I told, that were NEVER funny...} the gags we pulled with Uncle Bill and the jet ski rides with my Dad.... I pray that my son can have a bond with this little girl and that they can cherish memories like the ones that I so cherish with Elizabeth. These lyrics remind me so much of Elizabeth and her daughter... "And oh when she'll open her eyes, There'll be no surprise- That she'll grow to be So beautifully- Just like her mother That's carrying." Hope you enjoy the pictures cousin! xo
