farewell 2011
i love fresh starts. new years. empty planners. setting goals. dreaming dreams…..
but i also like looking back and reflecting on the past in order to know how to move forward.
today as i worked on my 2011 family photobook i realized how many blessings God gave me and my family last year. so many milestones and changes. so much to be thankful for.
in january i turned in my resignation letter for a job i loved and had poured my heart into for almost five years. i began the process of letting go of something i had built and created knowing it was the right move. i knew staying home with my daughter was more important than any 9-5 job where i was away from her. and i hoped i’d have another little one to take care of soon.
after a very important workshop and what was mostly a gloomy and snowy february, march and april, may came along….
the full time job ended. i photographed a wedding for the first time. my husband bought me tiffany’s. we attended my brother-in-law’s wedding. i started staying home full time.
we found out we were expecting! finally!
may was a big month.
summer with my 2 year old was a dream (when the morning sickness was under control). mariah and i spent time in florida with family. nick completed his first mini-triathalon.
we celebrated my brother’s wedding in august and then took our first childless vacation to atlantic city.
like usual, the fall was busy with clients and fun family outings AND we found out we were having another girl.
and now we’ve just wrapped up the year with a quiet christmas at home.
i’d say that’s a pretty darn good year.
and of course, my clients gave me so much to be thankful for as well. without you i wouldn’t be at home every day with my daughter pursuing THIS job of photographing milestones and changes in YOUR lives.
thank you.
