Everly’s mommy and daddy have been clients since my early years – with their super fun Prescott Park Engagement session, and their romantic wedding at the Oaks. We’ve had lovely adventures. My anticipation for meeting their little bundle of joy was off the charts, and then it was time for their NH at home newborn photos!
Meeting Everly was everything I’d hoped for, wrapped in layers of tulle and making the cuteness infinitely greater. She snoozed through the entire session – all the while with this little smirk on her face. Ok, not always a smirk, sometimes the cutest little pouty lips!
But then right back to sleeping.. like a baby. I wish all my slumber could be this peaceful!
Lullaby, and good night, in the skies stars are bright.
May the moon’s silvery beams bring you sweet dreams.
Close your eyes now and rest, may these hours be blessed.
‘Til the sky’s bright with dawn, when you wake with a yawn.
Lullaby, and good night, you are mother’s delight.
I’ll protect you from harm, and you’ll wake in my arms.
Sleepyhead, close your eyes, for I’m right beside you.
Guardian angels are near, so sleep without fear.
Lullaby, and good night, with roses bedight.
Lilies o’er head, lay thee down in thy bed.
Lullaby, and good night, you are mother’s delight.
I’ll protect you from harm, and you’ll wake in my arms.
Lullaby, and sleep tight, my darling sleeping.
On sheets white as cream, with a head full of dreams.
Sleepyhead, close your eyes, I’m right beside you.
Lay thee down now and rest, may your slumber be blessed.
Go to sleep, little one, think of puppies and kittens.
Go to sleep, little one, think of butterflies in spring.
Go to sleep, little one, think of sunny bright mornings.
Hush, darling one, sleep through the night,
Sleep through the night,
Sleep through the night.
(did you know all the lyrics to this song? I certainly did not! My version usually goes something like. Lullaby, and good night, la la la la la laa lllalllll la)
