Photography Journal 2018

Photography Journal 2018 - (Wks 6-9)

Week 6 - Window

This is the first mental picture I got when I saw the weeks theme. Due to baby items, my sink is always full of clean and dirty dishes.

Week 7 - Love

This is an old picture I pulled back out, because I'm just not sure I could beat it. The lighting, the subject, the meaning behind it all. Love.

Week 8 - Family

It took me an extra week to take this one because I kept looking for an opportunity to take a picture of all four of us. I finally came to realize that, that is NOT our family right now. It's little people helping little people, it's mom behind the camera, it's grabbing the camera during dinner, it's little groups of love gathered together under one roof.

Week 9 - Day in the Life

As a mom this is what most days look like. I'm not looking decent enough to get a picture of myself and I have a child touching me in some way! oh, and it's awesome!!

One photo a week has been a delightful way to remember to pull out my camera. Here are next months themes. Sleepy, Lucky, Spring, Body.

Mom Rules

Being a mom has a whole lot more to do with life than changing poopy diapers, nursing, schooling, dressing, and disciplining. It's when you change that diaper or where you nurse your baby, how you go about schooling and why and how you discipline. I've made a short 3 point list of rules every mom (or parent) should have. It's short and easy to remember so you can quickly think through the questions when parenting. Rule 1 - The Golden Rule Matthew 7:12 "So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the law and prophets."
