I don't know if everyone will agree that I've saved the best for last, but this is my other favorite picture of Nora from our professional shoot.
I think she looks beautiful, and I love her in this little dress. But the best thing about this picture is how well it captures her little personality. I feel like I know this little expression so well already. She may only be nine months old, but Nora is happy, and curious, and independent, and spirited, and I think this expression shows all of those things. I can distinctly remember that during my teens, my church leader Laurie told me she was talking about me with her daughter, who was a few years older. Her daughter asked her to clarify which group member I was by saying "the one with spunk?" and Laurie said "Yes, that one." When I found out I was having a daughter, I hoped she would inherit whatever this is about my personality that people frequently notice and make similar comments about. I think Nora has it, and I think this picture captures it, so for that I am thankful.
