Why? Everything we do needs a reason right? Why start a new blog when I already have 4 other places I could start a blog? These 4 other places are just failed attempts, so let's start fresh. I love a clean slate. I love starting fresh. (As you'll see in my next blog) So, here it is fresh start #5...
Amy Schuff is amazing photographer in the Sacramento area. I follow her blog, and she is starting a new challenge. Her challenge made me think. I haven't been behind my camera as much either. I have been having the normal struggles with mom-ness, dishes, laundry, home school, a puppy, and on and on. I know in my head I love my job. I think my heart needs to be reminded. I can feel the sour growing. But I also know what the Word reminds me to do. Phillipians 4:8 says..Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. I want to think about these things. Not about how high the laundry is stacked. I want to think about the loveliness of my daughter's breath. I want to think about the pureness of a child, and not about the dirt under their fingernails. Maybe those last 2 things go hand in hand. I think being a mother is Excellent and our God is more than praiseworthy for blessing me with these 4 little people, and trusting me to raise them for Him.
I want to pick up my camera every day during the month of February and find reasons why I love being a mom on the other side of it. I will be praying for you friends as I pray for me. I pray that we continue to think on and find a way to document things that are lovely, pure, right, noble...
