------Sunday, May 21, 2006I recieved a new lens for Mother's DayI am loving it. It took some getting used to,a little bit of a learning curve. I had major camera shake the first day. Today I took some and I am loving it.      This lens just rocks. It's the Canon 85 mm 1.8 for those wondering.
------Saturday, May 20, 2006Closing chapters of your lifeI realized yesterday that I have closed a chapter in my life. It was a long chapter, lasting almost 10 years. My youngest child is 16 months (tomorrow). No more bouncey seat,the exersaucer has been moved to the garage, the itty bitty clothes were mailed to a friend, the rattles and teethers are not thrown about the floor anymore. I am excited for the next chapter to progress, to watch my children grow and become their own persons.But this also means I am not getting any younger. Our oldest is going to be 10 in July. Double digits people!! When did that happen? We were young when she was born. Mr. Fun was only 20 years old for five days on the day his first child was born. I was 21. It's crazy to look back and think that over the past ten years we have added four children to our lives and now that chapter has closed. There will be no more adding to this family. It is complete. On to the next chapter,wonder what it holds for us.
------Friday, May 19, 2006Here it is...I still have some things to do to it (if i can figure it out) but you get the idea. I want to first thank Leanne for all she put into this project. She took my vision and made it a reality, amazing that she got it just as I visioned it. I would like to thank Mr. Fun for giving that extra little push to take this jump. Theres no way I would be this far if he didn't pimp me out ;) Can't forget MOM!! She bought me this amazing camera that has made my love for photography even stronger. M.Dawson Photography I can't share my last PB shoot because they haven't signed the model release and are on vacation for a couple weeks.

------Tuesday, May 16, 2006Darol James Davis 4/19/70-5/16/89 AKA DJ1989 seems like a lifetime ago. So much has happened, so much has changed. Yet when the sixteenth of May rolls around every year it feels like it just happened. The pain is still there, just as strong as the day I said goodbye. My heart aches to hear my brothers voice, to see him playing with my children. Pretty sure he would spoil them rotten. Pretty sure he would think I was crazy for having four of them. My brothers death changed me forever. I used to believe things happen for a reason and it was God's plan. I don't think that anymore. I was so pissed off at God for a very long time, years and years. Then I found a church again and started forgiving and believing once again. Now I am struggling again. My friend had to bury her second baby son in less then a years time. How can that be God's plan? They say God will never give us more then we can handle. Not sure I believe that. I don't think God had anything to do with this. And if he did, he's a cruel individual. And I don't want to think that of him. How could this be his plan? The same thoughts that I had seventeen years ago when my brother was taken from us are back......WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY?
------Monday, May 15, 2006Amazing what a virus can do..It can take this   and slow it down to this for days 
------Sunday, May 14, 2006I hope all the mommies were pampered and had a day to remember. Baby T is not feeling well. He seems to have some sort of tummy bug. So between him and doing my first PB shoot and celebrating I haven't had much blogging time.   
------Friday, May 12, 2006Productive daysFeels good to feel productive. Doesn't it? I went and took some practice shots today for my shoot tomorrow. I had Mr. Fun and Wy wear white. PLEASE don't let them wear white, PLEASE!! Whites get blown so easily in this hot bright Phoenix sun. I was feeling confident after the mini shoot this morning. Then I looked at the pictures and I am not so confident. They could have been better. So I am hoping the sun is my friend tomorrow. And please let this family of seven be fun. back to work...........

------Wednesday, May 10, 2006Wordless WednesdayThis is how I am feeling on the inside but I am not three so I can't express it on the outside. 
------Monday, May 08, 2006Ramble this Ramble thatI am an official cyberspace idoit. My head is in a fog today. I can't stop thinking about my friend. I am wondering how she's going to cope. Why her AGAIN? God is not that cruel, is he? I keep hoping it's a cruel joke, someone hacked her blog, something, anything other then this being the truth. I had nightmares last night. It's been a long time since something affected me so deeply that I had nightmares. So back to the idiot that I am. I can't even follow simple directions to set up my server for my new website. I am really hoping that it's my foggy head causing the idiot in me to shine awfully bright today. i also have a feeling that I may have done a no-no when trying to do what sounds like a simple copy/paste and click job. Hopefully if I did screw up it's an easy fix screw up. Maybe if I bat my eyelashes at Mr. Fun he'll help me out tonight. **UPDATE** I did it! I screwed my head on right side up and centered!! I figured it out and once I did it was a very *DUUUHHH* moment for me. I have my first non family, non friend shoot on Saturday at nine am. I am so sick about it. My nerves are a mess. Thinking about it leaves me queasy and wanting to back out. Please let the sun be my friend.

------I have a friend that is hurting, hurting more than I can imagine. More than life should allow. Why does God let these things happen? Why must one family endure so much pain in such a short time. I want to reach out to her, I want to take her pain away. Makes me wonder why I am so blessed, why do I deserve four healthy children? Why must others suffer from such pain? I am heart broken, my heart aches so badly for her. I want to hug her and make the pain go away. I want to make it right for her and her family. I know I can't but man what I would give to make this right. To rewind time and erase the pain that she has had to endure. All I can do is pray for her, her husband and little boy that was robbed of being a big brother to two little brothers in less than a year.
------Saturday, May 06, 2006The talk........My daughter brought home a permission slip home for that class we all giggled through and said *EWWWWWW* when it was all said and done. I felt I should talk to her about it before the class so it wouldn't have such an *ewwwww* factor coming from the school nurse. So I signed the paper, made a mental (should always write things down) note of the day and gave it back to her. Friday I asked her when it was and she informed me that she had already had the class. WHAT? I just failed as mom right there in middle of the toy department at Target. I decided theres no time like the present. I asked her if she had any question. She didn't. So asked her if he understood what a period was and what to do when she gets her first. I was lookig really calm and we were having a great conversation but let me tell you, I was a mess on the inside. Not because it's hard to talk about or I don't want her to know the details. I was freaking out because my first born baby is old enough for this talk. Time has flown by me. Shes blossoming into a very well mannered beautiful young lady. Right before my eyes. After all was said and done I thought, hmmmm, wonder if she will always think her mom is a freak because we had the talk at Target in the toy department???
------Friday, May 05, 2006I DID IT!!!!I am in shock! I went and bought my own domain! So does this me make me one of the cool kids now?

------Tuesday, May 02, 2006Frustration has set in and fear has said hello.My lovely husband,most of you know him as Mr. Fun, has had his co-workers asking about my pictures. They want me to take photos of them. Yes, you heard that right. With this news comes fear. I have taken pictures for friends and a gazilion pictures of my kids. Am I ready for strangers? I don't know. I was in a funk for about a month. Now I have the itch to photograph every little moment. So I have been practicing manual and then comes time to edit and thats when the frustration comes. My color is always off, ALWAYS! I have to edit and edit some more to get it almost right. Well, my friends, almost doesn't count in photography. Then comes the issue that my screen isn't calibrated and it's a laptop. Heard you can't calibrate laptops. PLEASE correct me if i'm wrong. Go ahead, i'll be reading. The door is opening up and behind it is my dream job. Part of me feels giddy, the other part wants to slam it shut,lock it and put the key away for later.
------Monday, May 01, 2006It was a "Monday"Started off with a doctor's appointment for T that I was almost late for. He recieved one vaccination. Since he has been walking they give the shot to him in his arm. Today was different. The nurse did it in the leg. I didn't think much of it untill he woke from his nap. He wasn't to active and after about thirty minutes he coldn't walk. He would try to get up and cry out holding his leg. So we sat on the couch together all afternoon. Poor little guy.  I'm hoping tomorrow his leg feels better. I did take advantage of him not being able to stand and took some pictures of him. I know, what a mean mom to make the little guy sit for pictures while he's in pain. I couldn't help myself.  Could you?
