life with a newborn :: mira

I remember when her big brother was very small, which was also the first time I met her mama and daddy. I admire the chill, peaceful atmosphere they create around themselves, and I think what a gift it is to be born into that. Mira was born when here family was living in the space between, having just left their house in the city, knowing it was time to move to something more able to support their growing family’s needs, but still waiting for the Right House to come on the market, they were temporarily staying with Monica’s mom. Two things I love about this:

1) That they’re having this sweet interlude with supportive extended family, and that this part of their story was included in their photojournalism session

2) That they didn’t wait for everything to be totally settled or just right to have photos done.

To be able to find contentment in the midst of change is a real gift, isn’t it?

Anyway, here’s a glimpse of some of the earlier days with sweet baby Mira….
