Beautiful work here darling. Love the lighting.
A little hint – she’ll always be your baby – it’s a stage – she’ll be back. xxxx

How totally sweet.. I love the composition.. the little girl and the dog are fantastic, as are those red colors… great idea with the blur on the sides… for some reason I can almost imagine this as you as a child.. great piece.

A gorgeous image!

Wow Toni! Amazing photo and a great memento for you to hold on to. The wonderful thing about rebirth is that with it comes renewal and regrowth.

Here is a quote I wrote a few years ago I think applies here. “God finds us at the point we seek to find ourselves.”

Let’s therefore be thankful that God is forever finding us at the point of our greatest need, eternal in his resolve.

As we lose the children we’ve born, so too gain the beautiful people they evolve into.

I’ll just say this Toni. If this beautiful “young lady” transforms into even a shaded semblance of her mommy then she will be one of the most blessed human beings to ever grace the earth.

Perfect tribute mom…....

Beautiful image, Classic!!

totally gorgeous TL… and i love the way the red lead takes your eye down to the dog to encompass the entire subject.. well done… a beautiful image..

...and congrats for surviving a dalmation too!!! heheheh… my sister has one (Eccles) for 10 years now… nutty as a fruitcake!!!! but so very lovable…

this is just a great capture, and I know what you mean. They grow up very fast that’s why these pics are priceless, very nice.

well done

This is incredible!

I had to stop calling my two kids bubba too, it’s a wrench…..but yeah, she’ll come back :)

Gorgeous & sweet, they do grow up fast don’t they…Ben had his first birthday on Sunday : )

Super photo Toni. Isn’t she just a delight… and so’s the model ! ;-)

oh how absolutely delightful sad for you though but you will always have this photo what a gem it is

Gorgeous shot, sad sentiment, tears in my eyes…..

precious…. when they grow into new stages… it’s turning the page to more exciting chapters…great shot and story…a precious memory for you for sure.

thats beautiful and cute!

Toni! This is so precious! Beautiful image! Fantastic work!

Wow! I love this Toni! I bet this will be going on the wall in your household! It should do! This is one of your best in my opinion! Great work!

Oh this is truly amazing, excellent :O)

Great pic. Love the colour and the blurred background really makes the girl and dog stand out. Brilliant.

Such a beautiful image, stunning…..like they say…..enjoy every moment…..now you can forever…

Did she coordinate with the puppy? Spots are in this year you know.
Fabulous image, love the depth of the background.
I still call my baby baby and other nicknames from when she really was a baby.

Great colours! – They both look like they are about to set off on an adventure.

a beautifull and charming image…nice work

Stunning image, always inspiring, wonderful composition and colour!

Awesome colours and d.o.f.

This is superb Toni, just love it and great to see you back again :)

This is absolutely incredible – what a wonderful imagination you have and it’s executed perfectly! Wow! And your description is so sad and poignant. Love this!

Jessi is a doll…love the moment you captured here toni…definately priceless!

Beautiful! I love how they both seem so comfortable and right together. Even in dress they fit!

really like this photo, love the colours =)

Thankyou all so much for all the lovely comments on my Jessi… =~)

They never stop being our babies to us, but they need to grow, too. I can relate, my eldest just turned 10 – very grown up! ;o)

A beautiful moment, extraordinary image :-)

Classic shot and one to treasure, sadly our canine ‘best friends’ don’t stay with us forever but with images like this they will always be special. My kids have the same relationship with our dog.
Great work Toni … speaks volumes

How extraordinarily lovely! It truly does look as though she’s comfronting head-on, the mysterious journey that leads us all to adulthood. Stay Jessi! Stay!! lol!
A beautiful keepsake you’ve created for both of you Toni!

superb image and very well composed. well done

Toni, this is so touching, My girls went through this stage too, its a hard thing for parents to hear, that their Baby does not want to be called baby any more, I agree with Sharon though, it is a stage and she will be back =0)

Love the song and love this image, the composition is outstanding, love the colours too, it’s like a scene out of a fairytale, great work as always!!

excellent work

Beautiful shot, it carries a lot of feeling

My babies are married with babies, but they will always be my babies
