that hold a mother to life.”- Sophocles

Sophocles was an Ancient Greek playwright from the 5th century BC. He was very famous for his writings of tragedies and history says he had sons, but not exactly how many.

And why am I sharing this, you wonder? I looked up the quote for this post and found it interesting that a man, born and dead so many centuries ago, was able to sum up so eloquently the stronghold a child has on a mother’s heart. From before birth, a new mother’s heart is never the same and with the birth of her new baby, so a new life of joys (and oftentimes sorrows) is born. And I must confess that I have been feeling a little sentimental- my 3 year old son is starting preschool and my ‘baby’ is almost 2 years old! Where has time gone!

Sienna’s mom placed her trust in me and let me work with her precious new daughter when I arrived there last Friday. I am grateful that she didn’t question my ways and creative set ups, it was a joy working with both of them.

Hope you have enjoyed meeting little Sienna! I’d love to know which image is your favorite .
