So over the last year I have been blessed to stay at home with Brode and watch him grown into a sweet, loving, VERY busy little man. I never thought in a million years that I would have this opportunity and God has blessed me with it. While my heart is still VERY much focused on teaching, I trust that God has me in the right place for now, especially during this very important sage of Brode's life!!! I know one day the right job will open up and I will get to create bulletin boards filled with my student's work, and write their name tags out and tape them to their desk, and intervine when feelings get hurt, but for now I am Brode's teacher, and my title is mommy and Im loving every minute of it!!! Over the past few months however I started getting antsy, probably because I am so used to a work routine Mon-Fri, and have truly worked since high school. I saw Brode's birthday as an opportunity to put my creative juices to work and loved every minute of it...it was an outlet for me!!! Now his first birthday has come and gone and I began to wonder what else I could start investing time into now that I have the TIME (well at least for a little while longer while we wait for baby number 2 : ) I have had alot of friends and family encourage me to get into photography which I have always loved doing. So I got up the courage and put myself out there!!! I am trying my hand at this art and seeing where it takes me...so far so good...im loving every minute of it and have had the opportunity to photograph quite a few families including those ever so adorable kiddos and babes!!! I am also learning that there is SO SO SO much to learn in this digital photo world and take each and every photo session as a learning opportunity!!! I can be quite a perfectionist so if I don't think something looks right I am itching to do it all over again!!! I feel like my mind is bursting with ideas that I cannot wait to grab ahold of baby, or child, or newly engaged couple to try it out!!! The thing that I would want most out of this whole photography journey is to bless those with what I create....and let it be a little slice of their life frozen in time!!! So here is to a new venture ; )
