This is a very sweet video my talented photographer friend Khimberly Caton of Snaptastic Shots put together for me and the boys around mother's day earlier this past year. I was still pregnant with Avonlea at the time.
I'm a HUGE fan of capturing life through photographs. But it's really neat to see how much more of life can be captured through video. Being a journalist at heart, this makes me wish to have a simple video like this every year capturing my boys' growing personalities and the love I feel towards my kids.
Sometimes in those quiet moments, after the children have fallen asleep and my day is coming to an end, I can find myself wondering if I'm a good mom or if I had been as present as I could have been for them that day. But I was reminded of when I watched this video was that being a "good mom" isn't about being a perfect mom, it's about just being mom.
Snuggles, kisses and laughter are the currency of children.
LOVEEEEEEEEEEE!
