Look for the open doors

Mental health is so important. Even more so during these times we are in. My day is so much better when we all get dressed and go for a walk to start our day. If you’re in a funk or need a little jump in your step, go outside for a little walk. I guarantee even 10 mins could help.

Real talk...I love this life with these babes. It’s sometimes messy and tiring but I wouldn’t trade it for anything. Since I was little I always wanted to be a stay at home Mama. In 2008 I had to stop working due to my health and suddenly feeling trapped at home, I realized uh oh I don’t think I could ever be a stay at home Mom. I needed something to be passionate about and keep my mind busy. I also was so worried thinking how could I miss out on my little ones every day life. I didn’t know how it was going to work...but God did! It’s so funny how you think you need to have everything planned out to just be reminded He’s in control, He’s got you. In 2012 feeling trapped at a retail job, wanting to start a family soon, I was not understanding how it would work, things changed. I got fired and within a couple months after picking myself up off the floor, I started taking pictures of people. For fun. Then 2013 began and after applying to many places and not getting hired, I devoted myself to learning everything I could about my camera and my photography business. I thought I was supposed to be finding another 9-5 job and God was just laughing shaking His head thinking, she’ll notice the door I opened for her sooner or later. So here I am in 2020 a stay at home Mom but also a business owner. I freakin got the best of both worlds. My way would have never brought me the joy His way did. AND DOES! So a little PSA for your Wednesday, Don’t give up ever and make sure you aren’t overlooking any open doors that the Lord has provided. Open your eyes and your heart and don’t be afraid. If I can do it, you can too. And seriously, feeling a little down today?? Well get outside and wak!
