I am a daughter of an awesome mom, a DIL to the best Mother in law a girl could have, the wife of a great guy, a mom to two fabulous grown children, and a Mother in Law to my children's caring supportive spouses. But the best is I am "Cici" or "Cease", which is code for grandmother to my four adorable grandchildren. I love being a portrait photographer because everyday I get to go to "work". I love sharing my life and being able to capture yours.

If you were to look inside my head, you would see thousands of images from over the years coupled with thousands of thoughts that seem to surface daily. I am amazed about all the things there are to write about that present themselves to me.

Fiona Florentine Ford, A Fairy Princess Grandmother

  


Fiona Florentine Ford.  That was my name last weekend at my granddaughter’s 4th birthday party.  It was a fairy princess party and I was asked to read a story and dress up like a fairy princess grandmother.  I was so excited and spent at least  a week “getting ready.”  I had a wand, a crown and fairy dust in a silk bag.  I even had a fairy princess costume.  I read a book called “Fairy Princess Party.”  I had so much fun .  Did you know that fairy princess grandmothers like gold Tory Burch sandals?  They looked best with the gold woven belt.  This was no ordinary fairy princess, this one was from Italy and was originally from Florence.  She married into the Ford family and was very high fashion.  Well, as far as fairy princess grandmothers go.  I had most of the little girls fooled except for my granddaughter.  She knew exactly who was in that costume and she wrinkled up her nose and let me know.  “You’re Cici”.  I don’t think a sheet from Target is my best look.
