Day 5: I took this photo today as I was sitting next to my wonderful husband in church. I enjoy these cuddles so very much after the kids get to go down for Sunday school. We get to listen to wonderful messages and really just sit together and be an "us" without any worries and get a bit refreshed for the upcoming week. However, this afternoon I witnessed a different sort of cuddle in a pew. I attended a memorial service for a very dear friend of mine who lost her son to a horrible addiction. I was thinking about these cuddles in the pew that I so enjoy. I watched a mother and father grieve the loss of their son. And yes, they were cuddling in the pew. It was such a different and much more profound cuddle then the one I got to experience this morning. We all need these cuddles from those we draw support and love from and I'm happy to have experienced and witnessed both of these today. To my friend: I'm sorry that your cuddle wasn't as carefree as the one I got to experience this morning with my husband. But after this storm, and as long as you meet your hubby at the pew, those cuddles will get there again. I'm so very happy to have been there to help you celebrate the life of your son!

What a beautiful sentiment. Thank you. You helped those of us that loved Graham and could not be a part of the service today share in the experience just a little. God bless you!

I have taken on a challenge to take one photo a day for this entire year. I have been excited to join up with an amazing community of talented photographers who have also taken on this challenge. The goals I have for myself this year is to, first of all, complete the whole year of 365 photos. I also want to allow this challenge to teach me all I can about the equipment I have in order to better myself as a photographer. I am excited to learn and experience so much this year through this challenge. Thank you for taking the time to look through my journey. It truly means a lot to me. Archives
