Oh Boy! I could CRY! I was suppose to take Lucy’s pictures today in her birthday dress. I looked at so many different fields the past few weeks to try and find the perfect one for her pictures. Rain and cold kept us from doing them last week, and then today, as I was picking up Natalie from school, I noticed that they had JUST mowed the field we were suppose to go to TODAY! I had worked all day on her outfit. I was sick! I knew of another field past downtown Wylie that had some flowers too, but it was not quite as desirable. It was going to have to do, so I thought. Until we got there! Lucy looked like an absolute princess. She had just woken up from a nap, though, late! I should have known the bad luck was just going to finish out the day. Lucy screamed the entire time I tried to take her pictures. It was AWFUL! Not only did Sam get home late from work, so we were late starting and quickly losing our light source, also the flowers were closing up and every little everything made Lucy upset. Her Chair. Her Shoes. The Grass. The Light. We did not get a single picture. I even thought after singing with her, letting her take her own flower pictures, clearing a whole patch of the field so it was free of any plants, letting her sit on my soft squishy camera bag, and showing her funny Lucy falling over in bluebonnets videos, she still screamed the second I tried to put her down. We both left extremely frustrated. Tonight, I just need a cool down night. Maybe I can try again before the week is over, and she’ll actually be in a happy mood. We are going to quickly run out of fields very soon when the warmer weather stays around!
