Each month, I am sharing a personal post with a letter to my son. A group of mothers and photographers joined together for this project to preserve memories and share our love for our little boys.

Dear Abram,

Suddenly you are insisting on a bit of independence. You want to get ready for bed yourself: get undressed, pick out your own pajamas, get your pajamas on and climb right into bed.
You chose this fabulous pairing of Spiderman t-shirt and Scooby-Doo pants for pajamas last week and insisted that you set up your own set for photos.

And you wanted a photo of this jaw-drop face specifically. "Do you know what the crab does on The Little Mermaid?"

Despite a busy month, we still made time for leaf collecting and some crafts. You made this cute monster with a leaf moustache.

I loved seeing your creativity!
You are the best, kid.

I love you, sweet pea!

I have been lucky lately to work with families with cooperative toddlers. (Those words do not usually belong together, right?) I know this family from my son's daycare and many playdates, so I knew I was getting handsome couple of kids to photograph. And I was thrilled when these two boys were full of sweetness and smiles throughout the session!
