Life is crazy these days. The life of the unknown future has us all in a teeter totter of anxiety. My 366-day projects has helped me get through by focusing on moments that matter and seeing details of life that I may have missed in my normal life of rushing from one event and activity to the next.

Here are some of the ones I've captured since March.

Quarantine hasn't really been all that bad.  We have seen more of our neighbors.  Chose a friend or two each to have outdoor activities.  And have included my aunt and cousin in our family group.   Working and guiding in online learning while a toddler is at home has been the biggest challenge. 

2020 for our seniors hasn't ended the way we had all envisioned. We have had to make a lot of adjustments and a lot of sacrifices.

Wow! It has been a quarantine MONDAY here. And it's only 2.30. I think by 10 am I was already done and Reza and Ethan didn't even wake up until 10.30!

Let me preface this, Mondays have always been my absolute favorite day. It's more like my Friday.

Even though I work all day Mondays. It's MY work. Catching up, working on photos, marketing, reading and responding to emails, blogging. And all on my sofa or dining room table WITHOUT kids or a husband hovering nearby or needing my help.

Y'all I am TIRED.

Global pandemics and quarantine life with 3 active boys is HARD.

I thought that I was a full-time mom before, but who am I kidding. They all left for 8-10 hours each day. And I WORKED. Like my job worked. I mean sure I volunteered, probably too much. I took time out to have lunches with them. I made their lunches and drove them around to activities. Cheered at the one soccer game of the season we made, the 2 track meets, went to Blue and Gold and helped with the cake.

Class of 2020, our hearts and thoughts are with you. What a way to end your senior year, we are so sorry but so proud of all of you and praying that you stay safe!

Recently I had the opportunity to help out some Katy ISD FFA kids who didn't get to show at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. I've been a sponsor of FFA for over 5 years but this was the first time I've been actively involved with the program.

Taking 3 boys to Target at dinner time doesn't scare me, I face it boldly as an adventure and badge of honor, but when one is a two-year-old....well let's say it's totally different ball game.  His brothers were so embarrassed but were good sports as I wanted to take photos of the experience.

So I started this thing.  We will see how long it goes.  For 366 days I will share a photo a day.  I'm going to try to make them all with the big camera and not the iPhone camera, but time will tell.

And of course, because I was a photojournalist by training, there will be many blogs about photos that I took for the project because choosing one is SO hard for me.
