Baby Valente
I had a professor who once told me to take myself out of things when writing. You know, don’t become one with the subject, don’t insert yourself in the story. But they never explain to you how to handle it if it’s just absolutely impossible as in this case. I can only encapsulate those feelings by saying that Nemo and Esmeralda are essentially family to me. Esme has in many times been the older sister I never had and quite honestly never thought I needed until I did need her. Both have offered an immense amount of support, advice, hospitality, and help.
So yes, it’s merely impossible to take myself out of this photoshoot because I have emotional ties here y’all. I cannot wait to meet that little squish and volunteer for babysitting duties! Although I’m sure his parents are even more so excited for his arrival. We took a walk through the park and just attempted to gather all the love for this baby in the images we took. See you soon Baby Valente! Enjoy!
Talk Soon, B.
