An Amazing Family :)

I definitely have a soft spot for this family and I'm grateful that I was chosen to take their family portraits. I first met Brianna, almost 3 years ago, when she started coming to my daycare class -- she stole my heart from day one :) At only 2 she was extremely intelligent and advanced for her age. She was incredibly polite and well-mannered, never forgetting a please or thank you and always waiting her turn. After meeting her mom, I could see immediately where she got her graciousness from. Brianna will be 5 in June and is well on her way to becoming class valedictorian.

The first time I met Brianna's younger sister, Maddy, she was quiet and shy. Boy has that changed in the last few years! It's hard to believe such a big voice comes out of that little girl. Get the two girls together and they are non-stop chatter :) Last month, while I was babysitting the girls, I thought Maddy didn't want to fall asleep because she missed her mom and dad. Well turns out Maddy is a natural night owl. She quietly layed on the couch with me and watched cartoons. She's my little cuddlebug!

Angela has become a great friend of mine over the past few years and I'm so thankful to have met such a wonderful person. And John, I guess he's alright too ;) If you have the pleasure of meeting the Dooney family, you will see how all four of them are so much fun and full of charisma!
