A Normal Day

On October 18th, my daughter was born and I became the mother of three children. Hundreds of miles away, on the same day, another baby girl was born and another woman added the third child to her family. We were complete strangers at that time, but our love of photography and family brought us together. We started to have a conversation about motherhood with images, because we tell stories with our cameras. Since some tales are so similar, and some are not, we decided to collaborate and share a photo a week from a normal day as a mother to three.

“Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are. Let me learn from you, love you, bless you before you depart. Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow. Let me hold you while I may, for it may not always be so. One day I shall dig my nails into the earth, or bury my face in the pillow, or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky and want, more than all the world, your return.”

― Mary Jean Irion

Twice this week you went in the water. You fell in the water. Once at the ocean and once at the river. Both times you turned to me, no tears, no fear, and said simply, "Wet shoes." Kid, you are so awesome.Photo by Click Click LoveFacebook ::&n… — Twice this week you went in the water. You fell in the water. Once at the ocean and once at the river.

you don't know what you do to me.  you are just being you.  just saying the sweet things that you say.  but when you tell me, "mama, i will always come back to you", you turn my heart inside out.Photo by Heather Robinson PhotographyB… — you don't know what you do to me. you are just being you. just saying the sweet things that you say. but when you tell me, "mama, i will always come back to you", you turn my heart inside out.
