Sad News

When we got home from Clara's ballet recital tonight there was a message from Soleil's family. Little Soleil decided her fight was over and it was time to leave them today. She lived for exactly one week and one day. Her family was so blessed to have had a week with her in their arms. It was more than they had expected. I had so hoped that the journey with her would be longer...that they would have had more time to create more memories, to take more pictures, to snuggle her more and to just relish her time here on earth. I know that her family is missing her so tonight and is going through such a sad time without her. I feel so blessed to have been a part of that journey with that little angel. To have been able to capture her while still in the womb and then again in her first hour of life. Her mommy and daddy are amazingly sweet people. And I know that that baby girl changed their lives forever. As she did mine. So pray for Soleil's family tonight as they say goodbye and let go of this little princess. This precious baby girl who came in like a whirlwind and forever altered their hearts for the better. Goodbye sweet Soleil.
