This is the adorable Benson. He is the son of my childhood friend Taryn, whom I've known since middle school. I'm pretty sure Taryn and I met in an awkward gym class...you know, the one where we were forced to dress in hideous bright green sweat shorts and run around a dirt track at 8AM. Taryn was a natural athlete, so she taught the actively-challenged little me a thing or two about Physical Education. ;)
I don't think I have ever cooed over a toddler as much as I have this little guy…Benson is a true charmer. I can't get enough of his ginger locks, chubby cheeks, and sweet personality. This was my first paper face of a youngster and the best part about it was witnessing Benson's reaction when he saw his face. He immediately smiled at his parents and danced around the room pointing to himself and his new portrait. So incredibly cute and heartwarming.
I look forward to watching Benson grow up and meeting his little sister in March!
