and there she goes.........





well, today, as for most mothers, was a very exciting and sad day!!! my first child went off to KINDERGARTEN TODAY!!! i did welt with tears, but none really flowed. as you can tell by the pictures, olivia had NO PROBLEMS leaving me today......so therefore, it made the departure that much easier for me!!! i got n&s out of bed to watch their BIG sister get on the bus!!! so there we all sat this morning.......drew holding the camera to video, n&s with their blankets, and the cat...callie! macy and jackson(the dogs) were right there too, but didn't feel like getting their pictures taken this morning!!!
when i look at this picture, i can't believe how "old" my little girl looks! she no longer has the "little" girl look to her......she is truly just looking like a "girl"........and any mother knows EXACTLY what i mean! it frightens me, sometimes, to think about all the hard life lessons she has coming.......and saddens me to think of all the ones that really "stuck in my head". we don't want our children to EVER get hurt physically, or emotionally.........but as we all know, those are the things that truly make us grow, and it's all in God's plan.

About Me

well....where do i begin?? i have never done a "blog" before, and don't know if this is even for me. but a few friends, and one very persistant sister-in-law(esther)really encouraged me to start some sort of "blog" or any place online, to share photos i have taken. so i thought, what the heck!? most everyone knows that photography has been a hobby of mine for a few years now. so with lots of practice, lots of failing, lots of reading and googling, i feel like little by little i'm getting a little better all the time. and part of the reason for getting better, is because of the famous gina..... whom EVERYONE loves and knows, she has been letting me pick her brain for tips and tricks. also, kris, who i met online after joining a photography forum, who happens to be an awesome wedding phogtographer, she has been a TON of help as well! since i have 3 children, my goal is to be able to truly capture, like a professional can capture, the pure innocence and fun of my children. (and i get it for free!) and, since i have lots of wonderful friends & family, i get to practice on them, too!
