If I waited until we renovated, I wouldn’t have these. If I stopped to clean the water spots off of my window, I wouldn’t have these. If I did anything to make my house more aesthetic, I wouldn’t have these.

I share this because we all live in messy little houses when we’re in the little-years. I don’t come through a home with a camera and a white glove… I come looking for evidence of love. The school artwork on your fridge, the fingerprints on the sliding door, the Barbie house arranged with a story all it’s own.

Styled family photos in a field at sunset are works of art for your walls… but in home photos of your real life are works of art for your memory. This… this is how I want to remember my motherhood.
