Capturing all the messy, loving, ordinary, but extraordinary moments.
I see the beauty while watching other mamas with their children, I see and recognize the moments that are so tender, so trying, so tiring, so ordinary, but so wonderful.
These moments, to us, sometimes seem small, but they are the moments that make up the childhood of our children. These are the moments that we will someday try to pull back from our memory to relish again. I want to capture them, to hold on to them so tightly. The best way I know how is to be conscious that they are happening, and to preserve them with photographs.
