I know... Wow LONG post! these pictures produced these words, sorry... Here is the entire album because I have no idea how to post just one picture the way this is formatted. You can click on pics in the album to see them full screen. I feel compelled to share these simply because Jenny Watts talent is breath taking and deserves to be shared. I will never be able to thank Scott & Natalie Noble enough for giving us the gift of this photo shoot. It is a gift that will continue to give me joy for the rest of my life. Looking at these pictures is like chopping a GIANT onion. Regardless of when I do it, the tears start to flow. I received these yesterday and Ive looked at them about 30 times...... cried every time! I know that if I live to be 100 I will NEVER come close to doing ANYTHING that comes close to the exquisite perfection of these two souls. The journey to bring these two lives to Earth was one that was intensely difficult and I think that the trials and tribulations of that journey offers me the blessing of genuine and sincere gratitude for their lives and presents the opportunity of loving these two gifts in a way that may not be available to all parents. I will never be able to thank Ronnica enough for going through what she went through to give these kids life. I know for a fact I would not have been strong enough to endure the road she had to travel. Ten years ago Phoenix was born at 3 pounds 1 ounce and expected not to make it so in defiance of that prognosis she was named after the mythical bird of fire that rises up out of the ashes when all hope is lost. Phoenixs birth allowed me to discover what unconditional love truly was and I also had the realization that the first 32 years of my life were in large part meaningless Filler. Six years ago Maximus (meaning The Greatest) was born at 2 pounds 9 ounces. Once I was allowed to touch his paper thin skin I laid all four of his fingers across my thumb nail and whispered through the hole in his incubator, I promise you with every fiber of my being that I will love and protect you every day of my life and I will make you stronger than anyone believes is possible. I think about that promise everyday. Maximus showed his fighting spirit from the time of his first breath. What makes me cry tears of joy and appreciation when I view these pictures they truly capture their genuine Love and Pure Adoration for one another. Their love for each other is like something out of a fairy tale and is truly heaven sent. Often times at night I will stand by their bedside and watch them sleep and ask God to give them any and every part of me that is good and to please spare them the parts of me that are not. I lay in bed at night and worry whether or not I am being the best father I can be and how each and every action I take leaves an imprint on my kids that changes them forever, both positively and negatively. I consciously tell myself every day to soak them up and realize the incredibly special gift I receive every day that I am blessed to I spend with them. I have no idea what I did to deserve such amazing children and if there was a Returns desk for heaven my overwhelming guilt would compel me to take them there because I feel certain that I received someone elses order, someone who was far better and far more deserving than me. I know that looking at pics of someone elses kids can be a whip but I hope that having the chance to view the insane talent of Jenny Watts makes it a little more endurable. Enjoy!
