"A portrait of my daughter, once a week, every week, in 2014."

Maile: A little Valentine's Day "princess picture".

Once again, I didn't take many photos this week. I think I have a case of the Februarys, which are much like the Mondays. I'm aching for spring, and I know Maile is too. We've been a little testy with each other, and I'm working extra hard to take deep breaths, count, recite mantras, pray, as we attempt to overcome our cabin fever, together.

I do love this picture, though. There are few things better to me than when I have an idea for a photo, and Maile is equally enthusiastic; we both had fun with her little Love Day photo shoot.

Last week, I particularly enjoyed Gone Tribal, and Lou's photos. Please, pay their lovely portraits a visit.

Maile's dress was made by the talented Jess, of Dream Catcher Baby. The felt heart banner Maile holds was a sweet, handcrafted gift from my sweet friend Cristin, half of the duo behind Camp Wolf.
