Yes, I say it every year: I am the luckiest person in the world. I get to be David\u2019s mother. I might be a bit biased, but he is the greatest kid in the world. (Though what I usually say to him\u2013when no one else is home\u2013is that he\u2019s the best kid in the whole house!) Today, he turned nineteen. <\/p>\n\n\n

Each year I make portraits of him to celebrate his milestone. For his portraits to celebrate turning 19, he wanted to wear his favorite Irish sweater and cap.  He\u2019s about to embark on his college journey\u2014in Dublin, Ireland. We know he\u2019ll do great. His dad and I, on the other hand, might have a harder time as we\u2019ve never been apart from him for long.<\/p>\n\n\n

David looked different last year, and he will look different next year. These portraits mark this stage in his life. It\u2019s one way we mark ours, too.<\/p>\n\n\n
