Lori - I almost feel a little lame for doing this. The only reason I feel like I might be deserving of this, is because I give away lots…I mean lots. Free or discounted photo shoots, lessons, cards, you get the point. I am even going to try to become a photographer for Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep. I haven’t yet submitted my application, but it is on my list of things to do this week. Along with take a meal to a sick family from are church . Spend time with my sister who is in from out of town. Finsih the final touches on my grandma’s 80th birthday party that I orchestrated, planned, and put together. yikes, as I was just re reading that it almost sounds like I’m making it up. But I’m not I promise. The only reason I’m not nominating some one else is because I don’t know of anyone who lives in your area. However me and husband are coming to California for our 8th wedding anniversary in December. I have been dreaming of doing a photo shoot of just the two of us now that we have three little boys. Honestly, more than anything I want a reason to get dressed up, get my hair and make up done. Feel young, beautiful, and in love again. Maintaing my feminity has become more important to me the older I have gotten. Maybe it’s just that I’m surrounded by boys on all sides. Don’t get me wrong I love them more than anything. Sometimes it would be nice to just be Lori. Thanks for considering me/us.
