For anyone that knows the Peterson family, know what an incredible difficult and rollercoaster journey they are on. Yet, when you meet them, you can't help but see the joy, peace, and love they exuded in all circumstances. Many are praying continually for this family, and it is obvious the words of Romans 15:13 dug in with them long ago -- "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." Celebrate them today for the inspiration they have shown you as you continue to lift them up. 

At the end of our session, 3 out of 4, were still in a playful mood, so I made them endure a quick photo booth. It was awkward; it was fun; I stole some great last expressions from my hungry clients. And if they ever need mug shot photos, I'll just photoshop on a ruler. ;)

But, this selfie shot is my most prized. Brandon is a longtime collector of autographs and celebrity sightings, and his list is very impressive! Many of his encounters are accompanied by a selfie reminiscent of the one below. However, this one is for me. Brandon and the Peterson crew are my heroes, and I feel so fortunate to have heroes that are accompanied by their sweet friendship. This photo is my celebrity selfie.
