Sweet Caroline | Caroline Garon | O N E YEAR | Gallatin, Tn
If my dad was belly laughing with tears streaming down his face, you could almost put money on Jude ((one of his best friends)) being around and being the cause of the belly laugh. I'm so thankful that my dad was surrounded by so many amazing friends, just like Jude. Over the years, we have gotten to know each other. Jude and his wife Abbi, have two precious little girls! Harper was TOP on my dads list of favorite kids. He said she reminded him of me when I was little and if you know my dad, he was literally the biggest goob / softy you'd ever met! Harper had a favorite too, I think ;)
After my dad passed away, Jude + Abbi welcomed their second sweet girl to the Wilson family. Caroline Garon, named after my daddy. She has blonde hair + the roundest little eyes, mixed with the sweetest of smiles. I know that if my dad was still here he would literally turn to mush over Miss Caroline.
When Jude text me asking if I was interested in taking Caroline's one year pictures, there was no questions asked. Hearing from his friends, being apart of stuff like this just remind me and make me feel wrapped up in love. The kind of love my dad would have wanted his friends to keep keeping on. I told him that it would no doubt be a teary eyed blog post for me ((and it definitely is)) and his words were "you better keep your shit together during the shoot".... thats Jude, thats why my dad loved him.
Thank you Jude + Abbi for letting me be a small part of your life. Thank you for being my dad's best friend. Thank you for giving Caroline a name that will carry him on forever.
