Soak it in | Northwest Arkansas Lifestyle Photographer

Tuesday, September 4, 2012

My kids are growing up.
One is a Freshman.
One is in 2nd grade.
One is in preschool.
That leaves me with just one little love at home with me during the day.

Not going to lie, that sometimes bums me out.
I'm trying really hard to not panic at how the time is just slipping
through my desperate fingers.
I'm instead trying to savor those little moments we have together.
I find myself wanting to capture 'perfect' moments less and less
and just wanting to capture the real moments.
The bed head.
The messy living room.
Mismatched pajamas and popcorn on the floor.
Years from now I know I'll cherish these more.
I'll be able to look through these photos and vividly remember our day to day life.
That good stuff that makes us Us.

Join me on a typical weekend day for us.

She's finally making her bed without being nagged all the time.

Daddy ran an errand. She gets so excited when he comes home.

You can see the little girl leaving and the young woman she will one day be peeking through in this one.

He wasn't feeling 100% and spent the majority of the weekend in bed.
His smile is still my favorite.

This opened window...

...caused this dried rose to fall out of its vase and into this soaking dish.

I've saved that rose for years. It's from a bouquet John surprised me with oh so many years ago.

Sometimes she is good.

And sometimes she is naughty.

But she still has to clean up the mess of her tantrum after time out.

Sometimes this one looks like me, but other times she looks like no one but herself.

Photobombs, bare bedrooms, and ghostly images through the shower door.
This is the life that I love.

It was a gorgeous day for a quick trip down the road to see some friends.

These guys are a fun part of our daily drive.

I love our little part of the country.

And I love our (sometimes cluttered) little home.

Life is good.
