{sneak peek pt.II} ~ mini valentine session

there was laughter, there were tears
all in all, it was in good cheer

each star knew it was their time to shine
one by one, they sat in line

so special in every way, they all did their part
in making their mommy so proud, of their {little hearts}

tutus, ballons, & hearts galore
it's time to play, let's head outdoors

now, valentine's is just a week away
time to share our love with a {sneak peek} today!

i never claimed to be a poet, so i hope i didn't knock anyone off their chiar with my cornyness! but really, with a group of cutie-pa-tooties such as these... i couldn't hold back! i must admit though, back in the dayssss, i was a pretty soulful and legit poet. my rhymes cut through the core and then some! as a matter of fact, i think i'll dig them out, dust them off, and read my mad skillz to my man tonight. he'll like 'em! it's a part of marriage i dig. you get in to what the other likes.

do i enjoy or even like the video games he still plays? no. i actually don't aaprove of them. but do i sit there watching him, cheering in the sidelines - sis boom ba! do i let him know with a panic yell, "behind you babe!!!!" do i lend him my beloved macbook pro so that he can show off his mad skillz on the virtual ones and twos? yes, i do. why? because that's love. that's a partnership in marriage. there are times when he would sit by me, watching my shows: clean house, jon & kate +8 (when they were still normal and sane. they no longer make appearances in our house! lol!). recently, it's been guiliana & bill (love 'em!), & of course, my dog whisperer. heck, he's even brought me to a cesar millan book signing and speaking engagement/ seminar (not that i needed it. nor was i a cesar millan stalker. he was just feeding into my dream of one day owning my own dog psychology center. don't hate people!) now that's love!

how will you share your love with that special lovey in your life? will you cheer him on or cuddle her up?

God made us perfectly in every way... we're a reflection of His awesome and magnificent image. this is why we're so capable of loving one another. let your love shine through you and reflect unto another  person in your life. refill and refuel your spirit with kindness and love and let it permeate throughout your household and spill unto your daily life. {love one another} each day like it is your last!

i know of another love. greater than that of my husband & child....

John 15:13

Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.

thank you Father, for loving me so much, you sent your only Son to die for me, so that i can live.

{sneak peek} little valentines

i was shot with cupid's arrow yesterday and at once, i was smitten.

the frills, shrills of children's laughter and yes, cries. the twinkle in each eye. the tutus that danced its way to my beating chest. and the smiles... oh the smiles that melt gold. precious in every way, shape, and form. i was hooked and loving every minute i was in their presence. i may have overstayed my welcome, but it was worth every moment. especially when i returned home to view each and every image. ahh.. again, i was shot... with cupid's arrow.

xoxo

Loving Hearts Captured Photography

little group of little hearts {christian, curtis, ari, & aubrey}

here they are!! my little group of supa'stars! coxing? nah! nudging? absolutely not! bribing? forget about it (think godfather I, II, & III combined)! this is the most fun i've had with a group of little rascals and i can't wait to do it again... that is, if they'd have me! they worked it out for me without hesitation! they had me running around, following them, trying not to miss a beat. we had suggestions for them, but they surpassed all expectations and, well.... see for yourselves...
be forwarned... the cuteness factor is is waaaay in the red level of the applaud-o-meter! and there are lots of photos cause how do you limit these? really? how? i wanna know!

they are real... i poked at them, and yes, they are, in fact, fo' real!!

models? no! but, they should be!!

here's more of them... working. it. out!

watch out ladies... christian's gonna melt your heart!

i love this next one!

and really... they were having a good time! don't be fooled by curtis' expression. no child was harmed in the process of this shoot!

see... good times!

here are some solo photos of each of them:

wait for it. wait for it.      CUTE ALERT! CUTE ALERT!

this next one was master minded by mah-man and main squeeze. i guess this is how he sees things when girls or women talk to each other...

i believe christian, was not acting in those photos. (snickering***)

at such a tender and young age, curits already knows how to work.it.out. must be in their dna!

the girls are gorgeous, bright-eyed, sweet-natured, and fullof life! the boys are lady magnets and breath-stealers. i love them and hope they had as much as a good time as i did!
