Hopeless Romantic.

Caeden comes up to me tonight and whispers in my ear, "I love you, Mommy."

And upon seeing that Claire has woken up from her nap, he says, "There's my sweetie!"

And while Wayne is bottling wine tonight, Caeden pats him on the back and says, "I sure do love spending time with you, Dad." (Wayne let Caeden mow the yard today, AND took him out for donuts, so clearly, he is the favorite parent.)

Just lots of love coming out of that little boy today.

And then, tonight, looking at my favorite blog,  Karen Russell, I read about the wedding vows her husband wrote for her.

My favorites (there are a lot!) ...

You’re the woman I thought didn’t exist.

I knew from the day we met that we had something special…
and, I was right.

You’ve taught me what it means to Adore and be Adored.

I want to enjoy every minute of my life with you by my side.
 

And tonight, I sit here working on a storyboard for Andrea and Jake's wedding that I will be shooting (only as a second shooter to build my wedding portfolio),

and listening to girlie, romantic music.

Sigh.

A hopeless romantic. 

Can't help it.

Don't want to help it.

and what I hope to capture for them on June 19th ...
