Photo captured by Kentucky Songbird Photography Alright, here goes. Up until this morning I have never even heard of the term "Impostor Syndrome." I was scrolling through a photography Facebook group I'm in when I first heard of it. I read the definition and it fit me TO A T.

Calling All Moms: Make Rest A Priority
Happy Mother's Day! I thought long and hard about what I wanted to write about this year for Mother's Day. Such an awesome day for awesome moms deserve all the best recognition!

When God Throws You A Curve Ball
I'll admit that I never imagined being a stay at home mom. Sure, I wanted to but never dreamed that we could make it happen. I thought I had my life all planned out before even getting married. I would be the "breadwinner" of the family and support us financially. I was going to attend a 4 year college, obtain a degree and make a nice living. We would be married a few years, build a little home and then have our first child. He or she would attend the highest rated daycare provider … [Read more...] about When God Throws You A Curve Ball
