‘ a portrait of logan, once a week, every week, in 2013 ‘
2012 will forever be the year that changed me. while motherhood is amazing no doubt, it’s been a challenging yet insightful journey. i used to be a care-free girl, selfishly wrapped up in myself and completely comfortable and confident in my skin. this past year…not so much. i’m here, just feeling different, and some days a bit uncomfortable. i’m used to constantly being on the go and continuously, whole heartedly, jumping into every project that comes my way. although its chaotic, it’s always been my way. these days, a particular set of chubby cheeks demand for a different life style that i’m still getting used to. i’m learning to patiently surrender and enjoy this slower pace of life.รย with the help of my better half, I’ve decided that 2013 is for easing up on myself, taking a deep breath and welcoming a different comfort and familiarity through this new role in motherhood. i owe it to this tiny being. i’m her world, as she is mine.
inspired by some of my favorite cyber mamas, i’m starting a new project in hopes of capturing the life’s simple pleasures.รย 52 a portrait a week.
logan: my girl, content and happy as usual.
beautiful baby girl for sure
she’s a cutie. lovely pic – and I totally know what you mean about the pace of things…
one of the things I struggled with during my first year with (now 14mth old) G was accepting my slower pace, enjoying the little moments and trying to let go of my desire for daily ‘productivity’!
exactly my goals for this year. they’ll only be this miniature once, right?!
forgot to mention…good luck with your new endeavors!
I am going to enjoy the 52 pictures. Would prefer 365, but 52 will be good!
Mammy
