A Jack Handy Moment...

I don't really get into "Deep Thoughts" or any soul searching on my blog, but I feel the need to share with all of you internets.(Okay, who am I kidding? I am sharing with MeMac, John, Sarah, and BoomPa and GiGi.) I am apologizing in advance if this gets a little cheesy. There are not many things that bring me absolute pure joy. Sure, my family and husband and children are always at the top of my list.But something about the feeling of accomplishment makes me proud. When people are impressed by any skills that I have.(What can I say, I am a bit of a narcissist.) Skills such as my organizational ability, or making my girls clothes and hair bows or even cooking a great meal and getting to watch people enjoy that. Those are things that I love. It makes me proud to know that I have done something well.

But, nothing makes me more proud than capturing those "special" moments on film for someone. I love being able to capture someone's personality in a photo. For a while I was just happy taking pictures of my own children, but I am starting to feel like that is not enough. I love capturing those moments for other people. I want to be able to share those memories. So, even though I feel like a little kid trapped in a parents body, and I am terrified of failing at it, I am going to follow that dream. I want nothing more than to be able to become a photographer. I have no idea what I am doing other than the fact that I have a great camera and this is what I want. I am going to take some photography classes and take a million pictures and generally, just jump in feet first. Please follow me on this terrifying and exciting new journey in my life.
