I know he’s probably going to get on to me for this picture but you know what it’s worth it.
I wanted to give y’all a little update on my dad because so many of you have asked about him, prayed for him, checked on us, and have continued to keep our family in your thoughts.
He is doing SO much better. He’s talking, there are no tubes, and at this point the only thing he’s getting is fluids. He is off of all the medications he was getting through an IV.
And honestly… God is working BIG miracles on him.
The doctors originally gave us 6–24 hours. That was almost a month ago.
Almost a month later, he is still here with us. He’s getting stronger by the day, and I don’t take a single bit of that for granted.
When the doctors had given us the worst possible news and it felt like there was no hope left, God never gave up on him. I know without a doubt that the prayers of so many people have carried us through these last few weeks.
It has been a long, exhausting, emotional road, and we’re definitely not out of the woods yet, but seeing where he is today compared to where we started… I can’t even put it into words.
So thank y’all. Truly. Thank you for being patient with me, for understanding when photography had to take a backseat, and for checking on my family. I’m so thankful for every single person who has prayed for my dad.
With that being said… I’m starting to think about getting back to doing a little bit of what I love.
I’m thinking about doing a mini session one Saturday next month, and I want y’all’s opinions before I decide what to do.
What would y’all like to see?
And honestly, I’ve REALLY been wanting to do something special for the dads. We always see the momma minis, the kids minis, the grandparent minis… but dads deserve some love too.
So tell me what you’d want to see! Give me some ideas because I’m listening.
I’m just thankful to finally be able to start thinking about photography again. ❤️
