Good morning!  It's Monday - things should be settling back into the normal range of busy again right?  A lot of kids went back to school today - so we can get back to our normal level of chaos!

Remember to grab your photo for today - look around you - start to see your world in a new way!  Look, really look, at the things in your world every day.  Here in Florida - because of our deep cold snap (well, cold for here!) in December, we even have some beautiful color in our trees.  Snow covered trees or lawn furniture or side roads and streets can make wonderful photos.

There is a way to do this - make sure you have your camera with you - even if it's just your phone.  Learn to document the "every day" moments.  When you look back, sure you remember the big days - but how special are those in between times too.  A special trip to the library, grocery shopping with just one child.....?  Those are special - those are memories too.  Cherish them... document them - preserve them!

Here is another great resource to help you stay on track and STAY focused.  This is as hard for me as it is you - I have a full time job, this part time job and a BUSY family, but I am trying REALLY hard to stay committed to my project.  I am the worst at starting something and not finishing, and I am determined to make this different.  I have a college age daughter, who moved into her first apartment in November.  I have two teenagers in high-school... I am WELL aware of how fast these days are going.  I know you think when your kiddos are little, that it will never end... but I can tell you - any of our wonderful Grandmas here can tell you - those days will be memories before you know it... LONG before you are ready!  Save these days... save these special memories!  

So - check this one out and see if it can help you too!

... and don't forget to make a memory today!
