7/52



Archie, my great nephew, Jarvis’s second cousin? Archie is the most amazing little man; he is filled with laughter and smiles, even after the year that he has gone through. After being rushed to hospital last year, little Archie has been diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. Even having spent so much time in and out of hospital, and having to go through constant medical procedure Archie is still a positive radiant boy filled with love.

I will get his Mum, my niece Jess to write in detail about Archie’s story, as I think it is a story every Mum should hear.

There are a few, Portrait a Week options out there. A lot involve taking a portrait of your children each week. Jodi over at Che and Fidel has inspired me to pick up my camera and turn the focus inward. Since I already take 100s of photos of my children each week, so I thought I would twist the idea a little. What I never seem to get is group shots, images of the family together. Whether it is my two children, Tamika and Jarvis. Or me with the kids. Or shots of Justin and I. So I am going to challenge myself to get one image of "my family" per week.
