where we go from here....

the past few days have been difficult for so many of us. char's passing hit us all in the gut, not to mention the softest parts of our hearts. 

but she wouldn't want us all mourning her for days. no. absolutely not. instead she'd want us to be out living our lives. smelling the flowers. soaking up the sun. holding hands while we walk.

~

so let's do that. just for her.

will you join me.

will you put on some music and dance or whip up a batch of cookies, while the windows in your kitchen let a flowery scented breeze blow your hair around.

i know she'd love it if you did.

yesterday i had a newborn shoot. in my hands i held a brand new life. a beautiful baby girl.

~

with every shot i took. with every baby gurgle i heard.

i couldn't help thinking about the circle of life

and

knowing

that this is where we go from here.
