I created a substack, aka a blog. Itā€™s really for myself and method to express myself through writing and creatively in a season where creative outlets look very different.

Iā€™ll post a short-er version here but Iā€™ll also share the link if you want to read it.

PCS. TDY. OPSEC. BAH. CONUS. DEERS. LES

The military life is full of acronyms and strange terms forming its own dialect. Itā€™s like picking up a new epic fantasy: brand new characters, foreign maps, political intrigue, and age old tropes. Except itā€™s real life and youā€™re navigating blind.

For example: How does one make friends? And quickly, we never know how long each of our families are around. Which, that feels like a missed connection on a New York Subway. A family we just KNOW would be our best friends. But theyā€™re heading to Hawaii at the end of the summer and we only just arrived last week.
ā€œDid you catch the wifeā€™s name?ā€ I ask my husband.

I should have asked for her number at the park.
My inward dialogue continues.

Is that weird? Are we too excited? Too desperate for connections? I said too much, too little.

And yet, Godā€™s kindness shines through in a meal dropped off on our porch, a playdate and homemade lavender iced coffees, a voice note full of encouragement and lessons weā€™re learning in the midst of heart ache.

Isnā€™t that a thought? Godā€™s goodness despite our heartache. Our circumstances donā€™t always feel good. Why do I feel so ungrateful?

Why are you downcast,
Oh my soul.
And why are you in turmoil within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
My salvation and my God.
Psalm 42:5,11 and 43:5

I identify the lies playing on repeat in my mind. Replace them with the truth and hope of eternity.
ā€œHope in God; for I shall again praise him, My salvation and my God.ā€

He will not abandon me.

We think the military is in control, sending us every which way like dandelion seeds on the summer breeze.

But. The military life isnā€™t something just happening to me.
I am not a marionette on strings yanked by unseen hands.

It is a method by which God is reshaping me; a method by which he makes his presence and abundant love known to us.

And isnā€™t that beautiful.

I want to take photos that reflect your family as you really are. I want the kids' full personalities, the belly laughs and the grimaces.

What are Fresh 48 photos?
These are photos either taken in the hospital or at home within the first 48 hours of your babyā€™s life.

Why take them?
Yes, you are tired. This is all brand new. You now have a tiny human you are in fact responsible for.
These photos help you remember their tiny features and how fresh they are. The grandpa faces and all. Typically newborn photos are done in the first two weeks and even in that time your baby is rapidly changing.

These photosessions help you slow down, document your breastfeeding journey, and the beginning of this new stage of your family.

*in this post Iā€™ve alternated some photos from a fresh 48 session versus the newborn photos with the same family*

Would you believe me if I told you that just a few months ago, our dear friend broke his back? And here he is dancing with his wife during their maternity photos.

Weā€™ve witnessed miracles upon miracles and evidences of Godā€™s goodness through these friends.

Praising the Lord for healing and their rainbow baby šŸ’™
