"A portrait of my daughter once a week, every week in 2015"

Lottie Cakes: A picture of you my darling in the first light of day. I often get mistaken for your babysitter, little ginger fair skinned lady, one lady even went as far as to ask if you were my biological child at a playgroup we attended. That being said, personality wise, you are 100% mine. We love the same things, dancing uninhibited, good snacks, bubble baths, cuddles, stories, being in our birthday suits and most importantly .. sleeping in. This morn however I woke early - super early, pre-sunshine early - and about 20 minutes later I heard your little sweet hobbit feet walking down the hall after me. we hugged and giggled as the sun came up, scavenged in the cupboards, told each other about our dreams the night before and had a mini photo shoot where you showed me all kids of faces from "grouchy" to "sweetness". This photo you are just you, sleepy smiling eyes, looking at your mama as we share a fun hour by ourselves in the light of dawn before we passed out snuggled up on the couch until a far more appropriate waking hour.
