The tiny ones… {NICU Baby Photography through the March of Dimes}

Yet another fabulous NICU photo shoot all done with the help of Jen at the March of Dimes.  How A-M-A-Z-I-N-G these families are, they would walk through fire for these babies.  It really is a different “life” while your a parent of a NICU baby.  These wonderful parents spend their days traveling back and forth from the Ronald McDonald house every 3 hours, day in and day out.  They come to visit their baby often weeks before they get to pull their baby out of an isolette and hold it tight.  They walk to the NICU, to the cafeteria, to the Ronald McDonald house, over and back time after time for care times where they get a to put their hands on their tiny baby, take it’s temperature, change it’s itty-bitty diaper and tell them through their isolette door holes “I LOVE YOU!!!”  I would walk through fire for my girls and these parents in the NICU prove they would do the same every day.  Thank you for the opportunity to do this again and thanks to the wonderful Jen who is our AMAZING parent support “person” who prints all the pictures for the families, makes them their own disc of the images and then holds scrapbook events for these families so they have a start to a beautiful baby book documenting their NICU journey.

 

The March of Dimes walks are just around the corner, please consider walking or donating for these babies.  The March of Dimes does so much for these families and your support will be greatly appreciated.  FOR MORE INFORMATION ON THE WALK CLICK HERE. Blessings to all and Happy early Easter.
