I feel like I’m cheating.
I for real for real FOR REAL love my job. After a wedding or a session, I leave on a high. All I want to do is keep celebrating their milestones with them. And I mean, come on... Look at these two!) I know other photographers relate. And I enjoy being creative and owning a business. The sense of accomplishment is so motivating.
And then I’m home. I snuggle with Griffin on the couch and play with his teeny little toes and dance to the sound of the microwave timer because it makes Titus laugh. I want to be part of their every day. I can’t bear to leave them to go work.
It’s a juggle to be present and keep things running at home and still work enough to help put food on the table. It’s a complicated question of whether or not I’m doing things the right way. I know people say “just do what’s right for you,” but even finding *that* seems impossible. There’s no handbook on parenting with FA.
What I DO know though, is that in the uncertainty of whether or not I’m doing it all right,
-God is our provider
-Our children belong to Him first
-There is no trial He can’t overcome
-He’s got this
If I can just remember that, it’s actually quite simple.
