Shout out to my “sliding into everything at the last minute because you’re so incredibly busy” people! You are my people. 😂
For those of you who haven’t met me yet, HI, I’M STEPHANIE, single mom of three wild, loud, moody, funny, lovable kids (and for those of you that HAVE met me 🤫 SHHH don’t warn the others ahead of time about my crazy 😂), bear with me because this will be a little long but well worth the read. ☺️👍
One of my best friends reminded me that it’s important to give grace to myself and to stop feeling like I’m failing because I’m not doing everything I feel I need to do 24/7, and so I’m passing the message along to you. It’s ok if you’re just now getting to anything last minute (family photos included). You deserve grace for yourself, and any time can ALWAYS be the time to have photos done for you to treasure, for you to spend time with those you love, to stop and breathe, to get your “whatever” done you can when you’re ready. Give yourself some grace. You’re doing amazing! ❤️
But I will say this: get the photos done!! Get the photos done now and as often as you can, no matter what reason you feel like you’re not ready (“when I lose weight,” “when my kids are older,” “when I have more time,” “when I have the perfect *fill in the blank*”)…I get it, I was there, I AM there most days right with you…but one day after my youngest was born I realized that my kids don’t care what I look like today, with my hair a mess and maybe a few pounds more than I want from carrying my precious babies and no makeup, and I was missing memories worrying instead of making photographs for them to treasure of our family. Get the photos done, because you will look back and either regret not getting them done OR get to treasure the memories you made at every small moment in time of your life in all its perfect imperfection. ❤️🥰❤️ Have someone take photos of you and your family with YOU in them, or even just YOU. Get the photos done. ❤️
It has been a wild and chaotic ride for my family from the beginning of my kids school year until now with barely a moment to spare for any “extra” stuff. I mean, isn’t that how it ALWAYS is of life with kids…or just life in general?? Can I get an “amen?!” 🥴🤣 And by “extra” I mean anything that was not absolutely critical day to day…school, soccer, gymnastics, clinics, doctors visits, CrossFit, more soccer and more soccer and more soccer. ⚽️😂⚽️
My three kids (2 teenagers in every sense of the teenagery word 🙄😂❤️ and one 8 year old who thinks she’s grown, she’ll rule the world or burn it down one day ha ha 🤭😂) keep me constantly running, and so I haven’t had any time to do holiday sessions for my amazing client families and friends families and family families, basically all the families, friends, and new people I’ve yet to meet who will tell you I like to talk A LOT and text novels and just get to know EVERYONE. 😱❤️ My secret is out, my not so secret secret…I’ve never met a stranger who wasn’t a friend to talk to anywhere I go, just ask my kids, it drives them crazy. 😂😂😂
Anyways, all the hands in the air for everyone else barely hanging on and trying to get things done last minute this holiday season…and really, daily. ✋😆
