So much changes between photo sessions now.  There is a different consciousness now – an awareness of her parent’s voices or when one of us enters the room.  A desire to sing to herself in the mornings and a love of standing up (with only a bit of help).  Hollis’ personality (and cheeks) emerge!

All of these photos are lovingly sent by Emily Dawson to my cell phone during the work day, always now accompanied with a “Hi Daddy!” message.  They are the most welcome distraction to pixel tracking and content management systems I can think of, but I have to be careful where in the office that I view them, since most of them make my eyes fill up with a watery substance that I blame on “these damn allergies”  when my coworkers catch me.
