It's been a hot minute since I last filled you all in on what's going on around here, and why I may be just a smidge behind on my workload. 😅🫣
In the last two months, I was still shooting summer wildflower sessions just before beach mini sessions, my eldest took drivers ed classes, my husband decided to bring home a high energy 8 month puppy, and two of my children (who have been homeschooled their entire lives) decided they want to try public school.
Which broke my heart a little, but so far they seem to love it and I'm so thrilled for them. But with that came so much preparation, phone calls, emails, paperwork, shopping, and we're still figuring it all out as we go.
So before school started, we crammed in as much summer fun as we could. A trip to the coast, camping, a Mariners game (they won) and a concert (Noah Kahan 💛).
Now my eldest is about to have a drivers license, applying for jobs, and will be taking running start classes at LCC very soon. 😱
With so many huge changes happening at once, my emotions have been in the dump. Motivation was running low, and important things like my work got pushed to the wayside.
But now I'm finally starting to see the light, so to speak. I will miss my younger kids every moment they're at school, but I'm seeing the benefit of having so much more free time. While I'm still homeschooling my eldest when she isn't at her running start classes, she's pretty self-sufficient, and most of the day is free to spend it editing, editing, and editing some more.
SO, with all of that said, if you've been waiting what feels like forever for your galleries, I promise they're coming and they will arrive as quickly as I can get them finished! Check back in the next day or two when I share my editing list and keep you all updated with who's up next. And thanks for sticking around. ❤
