Has anyone else noticed how cool teenagers are these days? I mean, seriously I felt like the awkward teenager that I was trying to impress the cool girls so that I can hang out with them in the quad.

This is 10. Happy Birthday to the one who made me a Mom. The love I feel for you is Undescribable, you are beautiful and talented, you have the biggest heart and I love you more then you will ever know.

Let’s talk Mom Bods. It’s that time of year again when the weather warms up and the bathing suits come out. Gulp! Instead of hiding our amazing life carrying, stretch mark having belly jiggling laughs. Get the F out there and show your girls what a woman’s body looks like, show those 20 somethings that confidence doesn’t mean laying on the beach hiding the only body you are going to get. It means playing, running, splashing using your God given curves to prop your babies on. Your kids will not remember the 10 extra pound you carried or how you even looked in a bathing suit but they will remember and hopefully become the mom that played, giggled and splashed with them.

When it’s been months without getting behind the camera I am going to bed with a full heart tonight. I never could imagine what not working would to my heart I am so thankful to be doing what fills my soul and makes my heart happy.

Oh yeah! It’s Friday.

Heck yeah she has something to smile about she just became a big sister!

Even the young ones are pretty badass. Happy International Women’s Day.

We all have that image that we are super proud of, the image that gives you the confidence to follow your gut and make this a career. This is mine. Tag me in your image that made your dreams come true.

Sometimes in life we spend so much time looking ahead at what is going to happen instead of looking the things that are happening now. Breathe and be present.

First comes love.... Then comes marriage... Then comes a baby in a baby carriage. Congrats to these two and the wonderful family they are creating.

One year.... One year of having them home with me. One year of logging on, relearning math, learning how zoom works and one year of not being away from them. I’m excited that the schools are reopening and to give them some sort of new scenery but honestly I’m really going to miss them.
