Growth {Seattle Photographer}

Life has been moving so fast lately it has been hard to keep up.  Our boys are growing, harvest season is here, back-to-back sessions and on top of everything, we have spent the better part of our days packing, moving, and unpacking.  Sigh.  It is exhausting but wonderful.  We are now beginning to settle into a routine.  We sent our oldest off to preschool on Tuesday and my heart filled with happiness for that precious moment.  He grabbed his backpack and put it on all by himself, proudly announcing to everyone that he was going to preschool.  When we got there he ran into a circle of kids and didn't even wave goodbye.

In the meantime I have finally been printing and framing old images, de-cluttering my desktop, and thinking about my next move as a photographer.  A lot is on my mind-- branding, classes, holiday mini-sessions, new business names, etc. It seems like a lot more than just my kids are growing!

Of course, while I contemplate all that is growing around me, I get to enjoy the finale of warm summer nights and beyond gorgeous sunsets from our new balcony.
