19/52


Tamika follows Jarvis

 She helps to go where he wants to

 She carries him when he is tired

She attempts to teach him how to drink from a water fountain

 She even indulges him when he lays down tired and wants a drink.


I love my children, and I love how much they love each other. Tamika's love for her little brother is almost as great as mine.
I know this is way more than just a single portrait of my children, but I could not pick which was my favourite. So I did the easy option and added them all.

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.

      It cracks me up how Jarvis does this. Will run around like crazy, then no matter where he is just lay down and have a rest.
