May is for Mothers

Take a moment to reflect on how your mother, grandmother, sister, wife, or significant other lives and balances a life for herself and the loved ones around her.

As women we live moment to moment. Concerning ourselves and our hearts with others, while many times casting ourselves to the side for the betterment of loved ones. As mothers we live in fragmented thought, the days broke into half hour intervals, getting through this life living on the giggles. The long days that piece together the joys of raising children. Its the hard and the soft, the snuggles, and the tears. We live our life in small moments with our children and family. Many days not getting a chance to complete a thought but by the end of our day we get to reflect on the many moments we had.

This series seeks to visually explain the moments we have, the joys mixed with the exhaustion...we do it with love, affection and endurance.

We are strong.
