Hey Yall, Its that time of year again. Kids are getting ready for school... the air is getting cooler (ok... not really, but in some place other than the South... the air is getting cooler). Mommas everywhere are ramping up for lunches, backpacks, uniforms, school festivals, PTA and everything that comes with this time of year. That's good stuff yall. The kids need to learn to read and write because they have GOT to move out of my house some day. Its important.
But here is some truth. One day.... your yummy baby kinder bear (that's what I call my kindergartner) ..... is going to step in to Middle School. Then High School. Then the School of Life where you can't pack his lunch any more and make sure he eats his dang carrots. Now... Im not crying over this yall. I know that some momma's do. And I get it. But right now I am knee deep in littles and the idea of having one out the house brings tears to my eyes... in a good way. PS: In case you dont know me, I have 4 children. Your read right. 4 of them. They are my very breath, but bless my heart, I think the Good Lord might have over estimated my abilities.
Anyhoo. To the point. One day... your sweet sugar bear is going to be up and gone. So while you are making your lists for this fall, this super busy season of activities and to-dos.... be sure to add one thing. Family Pictures. Yup. You knew it was coming. When she is 30, she isnt going to pull out her 2nd grade hello kitty backpack and remember. He isnt going to remember that crazy stylish shirt you got him for his first day of 4th. The stuff. All the stuff. The piles and piles of stuff.....wont matter. Looking back in time and holding a picture that has their momma holding them so tight and smiling as if sunshine was born in her heart....... THAT is what will MATTER. Yall, stuff comes and goes. You know it. It seems urgent. I get it. Im running the race too. But carve out the time to capture what matters. Make the investment to preserve those memories. AND FOR THE LOVE OF PETE..... be sure that YOU are in the pictures!!! A family picture is not a family picture is Momma if taking the picture!
Ok, Ill step of my soap box now. Ive got to go make tacos anyway. But Ill drop the link for the Fall Mini Sessions. They are fast. They are easy. And truth be told.... I am a HOOT!!! We have fun and it is a good time.
XOXO,
Allie
