I have the honor of participating in a personal project with some very talented photographers I’ve met through participating in the Clickin’ Moms forum. Each month we will have a new theme, and “the way I view it” I am very excited to be a part of this group of amazing women. Our first theme, is “New Beginnings.” I’m not one that handles change well… so new beginnings tend to throw me for a loop. But, in the past year, a lot has changed, and I’ve decided to take the turning lemons into lemonade approach. Up until this past summer, I was a working Mom; my new beginning, is the journey of being a stay-at-home Mom, and the challenges, and joy in all the little things that come with my new job title. I’m working on taking in the little moments, like pancakes on a Monday morning, and hanging out with my youngest after the older two have gone to school. It’s so much more rewarding spending my days with people that really matter… and making memories with my family.
Next up in the blog circle is my very talented friend, Lisa Benemelis, http://www.lisabenemelis.com/2013/01/29/the-way-i-view-new-beginnings/ . Lisa is not only an amazing photographer, with a masterful use of light, but she is one of the kindest, most genuine people I know, and I think you’d love getting to know her too.
