Tomorrow it becomes known of what my daughter is facing. I am an honest mixture of sadness, sorrow, anger, frustration and optimism.

People’s lives are at stakeContinue reading “Put The To-Do List Aside”
The Significance of a Simple Snapshot in Family Moments
One of my favourite things about photography is going back through the images.

As we were driving up to our family cottage last week, this song stopped me in my tracks.
