Yikes. I was off the blog-grid for a bit longer than I intended to be. I have lots to share!
Vanessa is the niece of someone I know through roller derby, Orange Ruffy (the Mother of the Bride at the roller derby wedding!) We’ve been talking about a session for Vanessa for quite some time now but this little girl has gone through a lot in her one year. She was born with Hydrocephalus and a hole in her heart and has undergone surgeries and feeding tubes and stints and I’m sure all manner of things that I can’t even imagine. But she’s still a happy, smiley, determined little one year old, despite it all.

She was also very intent on sucking her thumb, sometimes both at the same time. I’d pull one gently from her mouth and she’d have the other one in there in a blink until I eventually acknowledged who won.
