Can you see them? Right there on his cheek, and trailing over his nose. Precious freckles. He hasn’t always had them. But I love them now that they are here. Tonight, this one fell asleep on my chest. As I looked at his sleeping face, and those precious freckles, I really wished I could stop time. I also wished that my camera was within reach so I could take a “the view from here” photo. Later, after he’d been moved to bed, and after his Daddy and I had discussed those precious freckles, I went to work. Capturing those freckles. And those eyelashes. Forever captured preciousness.
