My heart raced as my mouse hovered over the “submit” button, a million and a half thoughts racing spinning in my head as a contemplated my fate: 

How would I look? Would I like it? I hope I don’t hate it. Am I ready for such a drastic change? Will I EVER be ready for this? What if I cry? How embarrassing. I’ll probably cry. I better change the date to one that Trever is home that night so he can comfort me if I have a meltdown… Okay. That day will be better. Ugh, but that’s two weeks out already. If I go too long I’ll back out. Again. Why is this so hard? This is silly, it’s not THAT big of a deal. People do this all the time. It’ll grow back if I don’t like it. But what if I look awful? Some people just can’t pull it off, I might be one of them! Duh. Just do it. It’s not that hard. Just click the button.

My Love,

Today marks 4 years as husband and wife, can you believe it? It feels like it was only yesterday that I walked through that door at the car wash and met you for the first time! I had absolutely no clue that the guy offering me a job back then would be the one I’d be kissing good morning to today. Four years ago on that cold day in May, surrounded by our family and friends, with not a care in the world except being together. I didn’t think it was possible to have that much love for anything or anyone….

We live in a world of constant change, short attention spans, and information overload. How am I supposed to stick out of the crowd and catch people’s attention when I can’t even hardly find the inspiration to post a photo on Instagram, let alone write a blog post?

These last few days have been a little bit rough around the Throop household. It’s one thing to keep up with my little one when I’m healthy, it’s a whole new ballgame when I’m not feeling well. Add the little one getting sick AND your hubby coming down with whatever is floating around and things go from hard to pretty darn tough.

Hey there! In the mood for a little get to know you post? Here’s some things I’m pretty sure most of you don’t know about me: 1. I don’t know how to do….

All morning long I have had Shia LaBeouf in my head yelling “Just do it!!!” It’s a simple message. Quick and to the point, and maybe a little strange in the way it’s presented… But that’s beside the point. 

The point is that I’m falling behind on my New Year’s Resolutions…

I don’t like failure. I had a blog once, but it didn’t last long. I had great intentions, but lacked direction, and when I clicked “delete” I felt that sinking feeling of disappointment in myself. I told myself that it wasn’t worth it anyways. There’s a bajillion other blogs out there that are way more entertaining and fine-tuned than anything I have to offer, why would anyone read what I have to say? I’m just another photographer. Just another wife and mom. Just another voice in a world of 7 billion other voices – how could I be heard? Who cares enough to click on my link and then stay there?…
