I've got a lot of love for this sweet family. Cat and I traveled throughout Nicaragua together in college as part of a service group. We visited orphanages, worked in coffee fields, dug trenches in the blazing hot heat for a cotton cooperative, lived with impoverished families, and tried to survive the crazy huge bugs. We both happened to leave the NW and now live in the same town!
Cat and Paul are incredible people and it warms my heart to see their family grow. Spending time with their new baby, Poppy was one of the most special moments I had this season. At the end of our session, Cat pulled out two flower crowns, one that she wore at her baby shower and one for Poppy to now wear. It was the perfect touch to our time together. Thank you, Diehl family for inviting me into your home and allowing me to share these moments with you.
