"Baby!"

"Baby" is one of Susanna's favorite words these days. Basically, every child under 8 is a "baby" to her. Somehow, we must have inadvertently taught her that you're supposed to kiss every baby you see...so you can imagine we have to keep a close eye on her in any environment where one might find children...mostly to protect them from her smothering them with kisses.

She loves "Mommy" so much that for the last two days, she's taken to wearing an old volunteer ID for Hershey Med when I did an internship there. She loves to look at my picture, say "Mommy!", then kiss it. She's so affectionate!

This photo is a sneak peek at Susanna's one year photo session with the amazing Amanda Kirkham, who so generously gave of her time and talents for us to capture these memories. She's a wonderfully talented artist - I look forward to seeing her career and her work blossom. Aside from her work, she's just a really cool person, period.
