Imagine this for a second...

You’re sitting with your little one during bedtime and instead of reaching for their favourite storybook, they reach for the album from the photo session you did just last year. They flip through the pages carefully, and thoughtfully ask you as they go: "Was I really that small?" They will love seeing how they were only 'up to here on you' and now they’re up to here! You will love it, too.
