Spring Time Means Splashing in the Puddles
Some days you just need to jump in the puddles.
On Friday my husband lost his job. That job is our steady income so I can continue taking weddings as they come rather than need to contract out for other work or raise our prices and make it more difficult for clients to budget for quality work. If you are familiar with the job market in the United States you'll understand why this is a frightening thing for my family. Compound it with the impending birth of our new baby and the fact that it was his company which provides our insurance... we're in a tough position to say the least.
SO... how does one cope with all this stress? I take my son outside in his cute little rain boots and let him enjoy the warm spring day while jumping in muddy puddles. I'm still cleaning dirt off the camera, but I also promise the photos are worth it. His smile makes the stressful moments fade and reminds me that so long as we have a roof over him, food in his belly, and can afford to do the same for our newborn... that means it will be alright.
Keep an eye out after I play with some new color editing programs and you'll get to see my handsome little man and his classic "playing in the puddles".
