Piper: I Am My Father’s Daughter

When I look at these pictures of my niece Piper – I see my brother Rick.  Not just in physical appearance because, of course, all children are a genetic mashup of their parents visual characteristics – it’s more than that.  Piper is a curious, spirited carbon copy of her father.  She is full of energy and desires to be apart of the action at all times.  Every toy must be out and at the ready to be played with at a moments notice.  And there are no sidelines in her mind.  You probably never realized bathtime was a team sport until she grabs your hand and marches you along with everyone else in the house to the tub.

If you are ever over at my parents house, ask them to show you the photo albums full of pictures of Rick that look oh-so-similar to the ones below.  Who knows – Piper might be there visiting grandma and grandpa – with her fist extended waiting for you to “blow it up”.

    You have turned a day that was BLAH and yucky at work into a joyous surprise filled afternoon/evening.
    I pulled up your site and just let Miss Pipers pretty face peek out at me while I worked. Of course, I HAD to show everyone that came within shouting distance of me my #1 son’s handiwork and my beautiful granddaughter. Everyone agreed….you’re great at photography and she’s beautiful!
    You are SO SO SO Creative and SUCH a GREAT photographer!
    You captured Piper and her happy wonderful personality!
    Thank You!
