one of my very closest friends just had her first baby this last week. {and its a boy!} I am beyond excited for her to join me in motherhood!! but man my heart hurt so much that I couldn't rush to the hospital to squeeze the new momma and meet this little treasure being that I was now two states away. not how I planned this to go.
it was a really homesick evening. i was lying in bed feeling sorry for myself and my husband came into the bedroom with a package that had been delivered. I opened it to find this dress {and this darling book for my boys that we have read so many times I've lost count.} sent from a loved one back home, it couldn't have been better timed. or more fitting of a dress for me.
so the next day I put my new dress on and stepped back into this new life. seriously how great will this dress be in the fall {california does not have a fall!} with tights and booties or skinny jeans. and reminded myself that my home is found in the Lord, and I have not lost those I love just because I've moved a couple thousand miles away. {all this from a dress? well partly.}
and eventually I will learn about photographing in extreme sunshine. california is a learning experience in so many ways. and what's with all the ants??
