I’m feeling sorry for myself today.
Despite my never-ending pursuit to keep my house “clean” I woke up to a mess. This doesn’t usually put a glimmer in my eye. My sweet precious girls are exceptionally needy this morning. Weird huh? A 3 year old and a 1 year old acting needy!? Truly strange. (I know, I told you ahead of time I’m feeling sorry for myself)
I had this idea that I could drink my coffee before it got pee warm. It’s been re-heated twice. Barney is singing in the background as I type this. I kinda feel like my nerves are going to start crawling out of my skin and open a can of whoop a$$ on my TV. (Pause to take a drink of my pee warm….no…..cold coffee)
My girls wasted the pancakes I actually made for them. Not “I opened the freezer and popped them into the toaster” I actually read the Bisquick box and made them and I thought they’d be a hit. Apparently Mom’s gifts don’t include making pancakes. What? I’m not taking it personal or anything….
Sometimes I just want to go to the bathroom alone and read my Pottery Barn magazine. Not in the cards today.
Have I ever mentioned Isla is a professional head-bonker? She crawls under things and bonks her head a good 5-6 times. And this girl has lungs. She lets me know that it hurts! In the loudest way possible.
Cohen’s rat nest is notably worse today than normal. Not looking forward to conquering that.
I did come across a picture today that gave me a smile. How could it not. Holy smokes.
I want one.

Ok. I’ve never been so moved to pray all day long. I have this overwhelming sense of God’s spirit flowing through me. God is answering the prayers. He’s showing His mercy and His faithfulness through answering prayers. Our God is so amazing. Autumn moved her hand and grabbed her sister’s hand and squeezed it. Doctor’s are puzzled as Autumn has been pronounced dead since Sunday.
Here is a blog to follow along with Autumn.

I’ve never fasted before. I’ve never had the spiritual conviction to do it, and I didn’t really understand it. This morning God put a heavy conviction on my heart to exchange my hunger and stomach pangs for prayer. Specifically prayer for a woman I don’t know. Her name is Autumn Lee. She is a mother of 6 children and a wife to a loving husband. Sunday she had a rafting accident. She flipped into the river and hit a tree. She was stuck under the tree and was knocked unconscious. I don’t know all the details, all I know is she needs prayer. She is currently on life support at a hospital in Springfield Eugene. My heart and my body literally ache for her life to be restored. God is mighty, He loves Autumn, He knows her and He knows the love she has for Him. Jesus heals. Jesus is alive and I believe He can touch Autumn and demand life be restored in her. I believe prayer is a mighty tool, and I believe miracles happen through Jesus. No matter the outcome, whether Autumn rises and walks again on earth or she is sent home to heaven, I know God will bring glory from this circumstance. Please, pray for Autumn. Pray the enemy be rebuked and that satan has no power over her life. Pray for restoration, pray for her children who are mourning their loss. Pray for her husband that he might have strength and faith.
Pray until you feel you’re going to go into prayer craziness.

I had a maternity photo shoot planned with a woman I had not met. She heard about me through a mutual friend. Any who, she was anxious to get pictures because she is due very soon! And she said, “I want to hurry before I get stretch marks!” Can I just say, this is her 6th baby! NOT ONE STRETCH MARK! She was stunning. She made my job very easy!
The night before the photo shoot I had a dream about the photo shoot. We had met in the country and it was so beautiful! So… I made a last minute decision to change our destination and it couldn’t have been a more perfect decision (completely directed by God). She melted into the scenery. It fit her well and it fit my style of photography well! So, all that to say… God cares about us and even the small things. He truly blessed my photo shoot today. I feel that He has his hand on my photography and I find such joy in doing it! Praise God for the gifts he gives us. All glory to Him.
Maria was such a great model. She was patient (which is SO important when it comes to how your photographs turn out, stressed and hurried client=stressed and hurried photographer) and she was happy (which also helps your photos turn out). She allowed me to do what she hired me to do. She had an open mind and planned ahead that this was just a couple hours of her day and soon after she would have memories to last a lifetime!
So enough blabbing, here are a few shots of Maria the beautiful!

Ok, I have started another project. I’m on it, so it should be done in the next few days! I’m constantly trying to add personal style and decor to my home and this was RIGHT up my ally! I’m excited for the finished result, and I will post pics when it’s done! I encourage this decor, it’s absolutely beautiful and very personal! Here is my inspiration photo taken from Stephanie Nielson’s blog. She’s got some seriously cute style and she’s a totally cute and sweet woman! You;d love her blog if you don’t already read it.
I’m even thinking of painting a wall in my house a similar color. I have a thing about blue walls in the home. SO calming and relaxing, and not to mention super elegant!
