Week 1 Behind the Lens

If you didn't read my last post, I'm trying to challenge myself this month to A) Be more intentionally creative in the everyday B) Take my camera along more often for pictures, rather than just using my phone and C) Blog once a week.

So, the end of week 1 rolled around, and I'm improving but not doing so hot with the whole thing. Last week was an insane week of emotions, not all of which can be expressed through the camera lens. I tried a little bit, but there will be another post coming soon with all of that!

So, here, without much ado, are the photos for March 1-7! Sadly, though I took a picture each day, they were sometimes with my phone. Also sadly, it is now March 11, so I'm a little behind on this first post...Better luck next time.

March 1 - Icicles on our roof after more of our crazy weather.

March 2 - Sweet baby Seh fell asleep clutching my thumb. Love those precious moments with her.

March 3 - A beautiful day to enjoy the Botanic Gardens for free with my loves. Reminded me of the changing of the seasons and how God is nurturing and growing life even when all appears dead.

March 4 - God has provided, unexpectedly and abundantly, once again. What a reminder of his faithfulness on a dark day.

March 5 - The day Adrian got "the call." We were thrilled...and humbled...and awestruck...and weepy. SO many emotions in the span of an hour.

March 6 - We were like two tired, grumpy gorillas at the zoo. Thankful the Gospel allows us to reconcile with one another.

March 7 - After a busy, exhausting, bursting-with-emotions kind of week, enjoying some silly downtime with my girl.

So, there's the first week. Like I said - I failed much of the time to stick to using my camera, but I'm hoping this month will challenge me to look at things a little differently, more creatively and more mindfully of God's goodness in our lives.

Stay tuned over the next couple of days for our big news!
