Several years ago I met a talented photographer in an online photo group I am a part of, she works all the way across the country and we’ve never had the chance to meet until last night.  She came in town to meet her newest nephew – a true miracle baby.  Dylan is two weeks old and joins a house full of boys! He is also the little brother of a very special little man.

In June 2008 I was contacted by my photographer friend when her family learned Dylan’s older brother wouldn’t survive birth.  I was there the night Rylan was born, to witness the strength of a family as it dealt with the ultimate grief, and to document the moments of his life.  It was a life-changing moment for me, and I carry that session in my heart still.

So, you see, Dylan’s healthy arrival is even more joyous than most little ones.  He is a true miracle baby, and the final chapter in this family’s story.  Welcome to the world sweet boy.
