Savannah Casanova Sweet Sixteen!

A child's love is very special and is a true blessing. As a mother myself you have the experience to love, teach, discipline, nourish, and watch them grow. You pray that every valuable lesson in life if they do fall, they will always know you will be there to help them back up. The Casanova's are a very close family, and through ups and downs, they come out stronger and even closer. That is were Savannah's sweetness, love, and kindness shows. This young lady is one that will not only succeed in life, but give to the world.

Savannah's photoshoot was in the plans for a while, but when the day finally came it couldn't of been more perfect! You see Savannah's mom has a job that comes with a very long comute, so her time with her family is very precious. This photoshoot was not only to capture her daughter's coming of age and her beauty, but to spend that special time together.

For Savannah's blog debut I was asked to pick a song I felt was special for her blog slideshow. The pressure....no, really I was cool with that. After listening to music, lyrics, it came to me. I had the song! Later, the next day I asked her mother if she would like something special to say to her daughter. Her mother wrote these touching words, "Our Savannah, already 16 and it seems just like yesterday that we were blessed with you; our miracle child. People thought I was crazy to have a baby at such a young age; but I truly believe that everything happens for a reason. I am so happy I was blessed with you. Time has flown by and you could not make us any prouder! You are truly one of the most amazing young ladies; thoughtful, caring, unique and most of all beautiful both inside and out. Your Dad and I are excited for you and your future as we know you will make the most of your life and we will be right there with you on your lifes journey! Just like our song "In My Daughter's Eyes" I see alot of me in you; but one thing is true you will surpass me and that is all a parent ever truly wishes for with their children. So, "Punkie" go gettem and never stop till you have achieved all of your lifes dreams! With All Our Love - Mom & Dad
