Seasons
 

(Cripps Family/Maternity Photos)

Life is full of Seasons. One rolling right into the other. Then one day we look up and that season is completely over.

The next stage may be perfectly wonderful…but the other one is gone…existing now only as a part of our memories.

This young mother is taking stock of this very thing. This may very well be their last little one, her final pregnancy, and she and her husband want to savor it and remember the details. Without even realizing it, she is setting an example to her daughters to celebrate her growing tummy. To cherish this new member of their family that they already love.

She began planning early for this session. Thinking about wanting to be near her due date but not too uncomfortably close. She put thought into her clothing and the location. All the girls fingernails and toenails matched. How sweet is that? More sweet mother/daughter moments. I always feel the weight of capturing these memories because there is no going back.

God’s Word instructs us to spend our time wisely.

“Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.” Psalm 90:12

Dear Father, help us to focus on what is of eternal importance.

Diapers must be changed, laundry finished and dinner prepared. But you promise to make the ordinary sacred and to be with us in the messy of our daily lives.

This young lady is a bright light. What a joy it has been to be around her. She is experiencing some amazing big life moments within a few weeks time.

She will….
                    ….graduate from college
                            ……get married to the love of her life
                                    ……move to a new city AND
                                            …..begin a new job…which is also her passion…teaching.

But this I know…She will do all of the above while being grateful to the Lord for her blessings and when needed, leaning on Him for her strength.

Stride into your future dear girl.  It is coming for you FAST. A whole wide world of blessings and opportunities.
