Great Expectations • Samantha Jane • Newborn Portrait

It was a Thursday evening.  My sister Jennie, her husband Tom, Mike, and I all waited at the diner for THE phone call.  My sister and I teased about who would get the call first…you see, we were waiting to hear from my parents about the birth of our first niece or nephew.  Jennies’ phone rang as my text ringer chimed….”IT’S A GIRL!”  We were all jumping out of our seats!  I guess my parents know Jennie and I well, cause they dialed at the exact same time!  We immediately paid the check and rushed  over to Riverview to congratulate my brother Chris and his beautiful wife Jenn….and to welcome the newest member of the Morrisy Clan!  Dearest Samantha Jane.
Words can’t express the feelings that were rushing through all of us that night- all I can say is there was so much love and family pride present.  To see my brother, holding his baby girl…was the most amazing thing ever.  He looked so humbled by the new life before him.  I think we all were- such a miracle.
She is beautiful- and I am not just saying that cause she is my niece!  I am simply in love with her.  Isn’t her red hair is the cutest?!!  Here are some of her newborn portraits…but there will be many more to come!
