A fool to God

I was weak when you were strong,
you made me feel I didn't belong.
My heart and spirit were wide open for attack
but that's what happens when you're the sheep that's black.

Mistakes I've made, more than quite a few
But one is for solitaire, the tango for two.
The blame game frees the self from sin
but the truth is known from deep down within.

So time, faith and circumstance
have led me to this happy dance
of joy and freedom from the grips of pain
And you can never, ever, ever hurt me again.

Once shrunken and defeated, head bowed straight down
and now I'm upright and wear the Crown.
The Crown of peace, The Crown of success
The Crown of I'm no longer that dreaded mess.

Look at me, now look at you,
then tell me who is needy of who.
Such wasted time full of hatred and anger
My time here on earth will no longer be meagre.

We're all here living on borrowed time
and here I am writing this god awful rhyme.
I prayed for your soul when you didn't deserve it
but life and it's karma decides what sentence is fit.

The lessons I've learned, the growing I've done
my life it feels has just begun
So forgive you I may, forgive you I might
even if you never admit that I'm right.

At the end of the day and when it's time to turn in,
you put your head on the pillow and seek the truth from within.
You can lie to yourself, you can play a fraud
But you can never ever play a fool to God.

A blue eyed family and their angel baby {Webster's Falls Dundas family photographer}

I had to laugh when I reconnected with an old friend Rob and his family. It had been years since I seen him...probably 15 to be exact. He remembered me as a party girl. And party we all did! When he asked how I got into photography, I recounted my memories of hating my office job and quitting on my lunch break with no plan in sight. He chuckled to Michael that he remembered the last time he saw me, I had also quit my high paying desk job, again with no plan in sight. But that was then and this is now and thank God I was a hot mess who somehow figured her life out. Better late then never.

Rob and his beautiful wife Jenny have two gorgeous blue eyed blonde haired precious bundles of joy. Benjamin is a fun loving and active little boy who loves to build things. In fact, if he promised to smile for the photos, he was going to be rewarded by a trip to Home Depot. I wonder if he got that excavator?

Bianca is a happy and giggly little girl with the hair of a cherub doll and the eyes of an angel.

It is difficult to imagine what this family went through when they lost their first born Elsa. This is not the first time we have photographed a family who have gone through this grieving process. It's important to them that they remember this angel baby in their family photos. They honoured Elsa with a small stuffed lamb. She will never be forgotten.

Rob and family....I hope you enjoy your sneak peeks of Saturday's session. It was great to connect again.

With love,

Wendy
