And the end of our seniors sessions for the 2016 year are about coming to a close! With that being said, I am seriously on the verge of tears! Lots and lots of my seniors this year are kids that I have known and been shooting for years! And among them is Blake, who was literally one of my first 5 shoots ever, way back in the beginning of Tiptoe, like 8 years ago! To say that I've gotten to watch him grow up is an understatement! **Tears** He's such a bright kid with a great head on his shoulders, and is usually calm cool and collected, when the rest of the family is going crazy! (Love you Tom!) I can't wait to see what life has in store for him. *tears again* Big sigh! Enjoy your teasers!
I don't know if my old age is getting to me, or maybe that everything changes when you have kids of your own, but I am having a really hard time believing (probably not quite as hard of a time as his momma 🙂 ) that Will is a senior. Ahhhh! I mean how many years have I been married? Like 8 years? And from the time little Will was the ring bearer in my wedding till now seems like it has gone by in a flash! Literally, I blinked and Will has turned into this 6'3 man. Will has always been one of my favorite guys, from 8 year old Will showing me all his animals in his room to 18 year old Will showing me all his animals at the barn (and teaching me a thing or 2 about the chickens, lol.) He has always been the most personable, handsome, kind, intelligent, and outstanding kid I know. (Way to go mom and dad, you should be so proud!!) He just excels in everything he tries, and makes it fun for everyone around him. (Even if it is a game of Mao, where I am ready to quit because I have no idea what the heck is going on... Yes, Will is probably the only one who can make me stay in the game. ) Also I have never met such a caring guy, whether he's playing with my Olivia, or helping me out on a night where I just really wanted something off the menu at Sheetz, or even helping a friend who just needed some ice cream (.... Erica) His devotion to people (and his animals) is so obvious and amazing... I mean seriously who can ask for more than that in your kid!
So Mr. Will Shultz ... I can't wait to see what you will do with this life. You are an amazing man and have one of the strongest characters I know. The world is waiting on you!! (... and there go my tears.) Enjoy!!
