The Workshop.

I thought I would post a few photos from the workshop. I am loving the workshop so far. For those of you who don't know I am attending a workshop given by the lovely Marta Locklear. I am able to attend because back in January I was the fortunate winner of a giveaway hosted by The Creative Mama. You can read about the giveaway and see my submission here.

I feel a little out of place among the other members. Most have already started on this journey toward a photography business. And their work is incredible. But we all have to start somewhere. Right? I feel like I really made a breakthrough the other day. I was able to capture the light in a way I have never been able to before. I feel like for the first time that I might actually be able to do this. That I have the talent and now am beginning to learn the skills I need to take me down this road. I'll let the photos do the talking. And you can let me know what you think.

"Tomorrow, tomorrow. I'll love ya tomorrow."



Emma and I went on a road trip this weekend. I hooked up the DVD player so that she could watch a movie. She decided on "Annie." Her favorite. I could hear her singing along from time to time and it made me smile.
And then,

"MOM!"
"Yes, baby?"
"I AM SOOOOOO GLAD I AM NOT AN ORPHAN!"
"Me too Emma. Me too."

And I am laughing until I cry.
