He gave me a nice surprise, showed me something I have yet to see in all my years of photographing newborns, and while it’s not the most common of occurrences, it was by far the most interesting!
He’s a unique boy, and born with something that not many of us have……….a 6th toe on his right foot. How stinkin’ cool is that!!!! When Mom told me, at first I thought she might be pulling my leg, only because I had no idea this was even possible, and also because I had just finished posing his tiny little feet and hadn’t noticed anything out of the ordinary.
I was, and still am, totally amazed by this. It’s hereditary and has been passed down through the family for generations, also very cool!
I absolutely loved that Mom was all for documenting this amazingly unique quality that her sweet boy was born with. For in time, it will be surgically removed, and will be all but a memory had it not been for her willingness to capture it.
Thank you Mom, for being so open, for sharing your newest addition with me, and for the wonderful conversation and time spent together!
