I've been pushing myself harder than I have my entire life. Pushing myself to be a better mom, a better wife all while trying to follow my dreams. There are times it's just hard... to do it all... to be all to everyone. I look at the journey ahead of me and I know it's there and I know I'll get there... it's no longer a question of "if" - it's "when". Sacrifices will be made. The dishes will not get done. The DVR will reach 100% capacity. I will lose sleep at night. But I'll get there.....

Because she's watching....

Although my time is sometimes borrowed for other families, when I am here, I am present.

and we love to make homemade pizza

Tonight at dinner, she say's to me "when I grow up, I'm going to get a job. I'm going to be a photographer"

p.s. All photos taken with my phone.
