Just look how much my boys have changed in just the course of a year
My boys aren’t the only ones that have grown this year, I have too! It was at the beginning of 2010 when I decided to dive back into the world of photography and explore my passion! I have learned so much this year and with every month that passes by come closer and closer to the person I want to be, creatively at least.
I guess the word that best fits for 2010 is Growth...
The growth in my life has been good, I have succeeded and failed and grown from it all! Seeing my boys physically grow and their personalities sprout has been rewarding. But with all things that grow, when left untamed it can quickly become overgrown and wild! So, my word for 2011 is FOCUS!
Adding more focus to my creativity, giving it direction. Helping my boys focus on learning and developing their minds and manners as we delve into the world of homeschooling! More focus on completing task and goals. More focus on family and getting distractions out of the way. More focus on getting healthy!
As I said in my previous post, I am planning on attempting another 365 project or similar photo project, I sort of lost focus on it when life started getting crazy! This year, I’d like to complete it, I also have another project I would like to work on, but I’ll save discussion of it for a later date, but I am super excited about it! I did however complete half of my 365 for 2010. Here are a few of my favorites from my first attempt at 365...150??
I hope you all have a great year and wish you the best in achieving your New Year’s goals!

P.S. I've linked this post up with Meagan over at Madelinebea for her 365 check-in
you take awesome photos. That carousel (?) is jaw-dropping gorgeous. And the flower head gone to seed. All of them. They are studies in beauty. I'm on a 365 journey too. Though I've learned so much, I'm really just beginning as there's a long long way to go on this journey. I hope you continue taking lots of photos because they're an inspiration.
ReplyDeleteI'm also hoping the coming year brings you lots and lots of joy, light, and love. I almost forgot - the change in your sons is amazing, and they so look like you!
Great collection! Good luck with 2011, focus is a toughy - I lose it all the time! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteYour photography and your boys really have grown so much. I can't wait to see what will happen in 2011.
ReplyDeleteThank you all! Happy New Year!

ReplyDeleteWow, isn't it amazing how much kids grow and age in just one year!? And I love love love your collage!! You have so many gorgeous shots from 2010!!
ReplyDeleteI'm visiting from the 365 day project. What a great idea, putting the photos of the boys side by side. It's such a cliché but change is the only constant. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe the difference in your boys in just one year! I feel the same about mine...it's incredible how much they change. Your 365 pic are amazing...it's so fun to look back! Happy New Year! :-)
ReplyDeleteYour baby doesn't look so baby anymore! (Mine doesn't either!)
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures. I think the candy cane and butterfly are my favs!
I agree - you have grown much and I totally identify with a need for more focus! I LOVE seeing your work and can't wait to see more.
ReplyDeleteWhat a well put post and very encouraging for me to read. Thanks!
