Mine – Rapunzel | Melbourne Children’s Portrait Photographer

Mine Turned Two | Melbourne Child Photographer

You’re two now. You still love to co-sleep. You’re  rough yet gentle. You’ve just had your first ‘real’ haircut. You make me smile. You’re silly, yet serious. You enjoy making noise. Not to mention make mess. You’re a little boy now. You love those around you. You are loved. My boy.
