Photo Project- This is our life

Paint the moon has introduced a weekly photography challenge called " This is our life".  Since I am just getting started learning how to use a camera more proficiently I thought this would be a fun way to make me try new things and get some practice in.  Don't worry about the fact that it was supposed to start at the beginning of the year and it's the middle of March.  Better late than never, right?  I'll try not to let every shot be of baby Joshua, but I can't make any promises.

Week 1: Balance

I had a hard time thinking of what I was going to choose for this week's challenge but, then Joshua just decided he was going to sit up all by himself.  After wondering when he was going to be able to do it by himself I decided to just sit him up and see what he would do.  He held himself up like that for a good 2-3 minutes (long enough for me to grab my camera and snap a few shots thankfully) before tumbling over in the most adorable way. 


This has been one crazy week and balance definitely describes it.  Sean fell while playing basketball and broke his leg and ended up needing surgery.  So, this week has been a nonstop whirlwind of trying to take care of him while still taking care of a 5 month old.  It has definitely taught me how selfish I can be and has made me rely on the Lord's strength and have greater faith.  I don't know why it happened by I know "the Lord works all things for the good of those who love him and are called according to his purpose."

 Joshua is happy to have his daddy home with him though.... and I am too.
