Walking on egg shells is infamously linked to a cranky boss, a naggy wife, or a hormonal pregnant woman. Who wants to walk on eggshells with anybody? Not me. But now, I've finally come across a situation where I felt like walking on eggshells was a precious expression stemming only from love.
As I walked into the Funai house last Sunday, I walked on eggshells. No, the Funai's are not those kind of people! I walked on eggshells because little L was sleeping. I walked on eggshells out of love for this little girl. She held my heart before I even met her, and I wanted to walk on eggshells for her.
The last time I was at the Funai's house was for the maternity shoot a month or two ago. Their house is BEEE-YOU-TEE-FUL!! Not just wow, but whh-how. This time, the house was still gorge, but it was sprinkled with remnants of a new inhabitant. A swing in this corner. A bassinet in that corner. A pacifier on one end of the counter, and a few bottles ready to be washed on the other end. Along with the sprinkling of baby gear came a dash of warmth and a sprig of love. The atmosphere was unrecognizable in comparison to just a few weeks before.
Our day circled around little L, as every day does in the Funai house. Here are a few good ones, but of course, the best will be on the slideshow in a few days.
Funai Family: I had a great time capturing this special moment in your lives. I call it a moment because it goes by so quickly. I know that you hear from everyone... treasure this time, it goes by so quickly... but it really is true. Soak up every sound, and kiss every inch of that teeny baby.
