I only know you from your work and reading up on your blog a couple times a week as you are such a huge inspiration to me and my own work but I just cried and cried because not only is your family so precious; Michael really captured them being themselves, which is the way you get to see them every day, and the music – how perfect!!! Thanks so much for posting this as it warmed my heart and I can not even imagine how excited you have been with it – I hope one day I can have this same experience with my family!! You are truely BLESSED!!
