Happy Mother's Day!

I'm cheating and totally going to post what I just posted on Facebook. But it's important, and it struck me really hard today that I needed to share this. Maybe one of my readers needed to hear it as much as I did.

I needed to read this today, and I need to try to remember it the next time I feel like life is flying by so fast that I just can't keep up with everyone else. I'm in this race of life as a mom and wife first. That comes before being a friend, a photographer, a piano teacher, a blogger, and everything else I've tried to be successful at. And it's the little moments, spent playing and reading with my kids that I need to work on. Not the elaborate parties, and impeccably decorated house. 

This is a must read, for every mom, dad or anyone who feels like a good read...

And HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! It's the best job I've ever had (and every will) in my life!

Oh my heck, Brooke! I totally read this last last week and loved it! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, Our Best Bites ladies!! Anyhow, thanks so much for posting the link again. I don't know what it was but Mother's Day this year was a total bummer for me...I feel like I never measure up because I'm not one of those "super" mom's but this article helped me (atleast for a time..:):) Thanks for sharing again, I needed it today...again! And for what it's worth, you are one of those "super" mom's that I totally envy and admire!
