I am still alive!
Hi all!!!
I am sure it seems like we are missing in action but we aren't! Cassi and I have been taking turns being sick and if I haven't been the one moaning and groaning about everything wrong with me these last few weeks...it's because I have not had the time to think about my ailments while taking care of Cassi. She is just now recuperating from strep throat and the nasty effects of antibiotics (DO NOT ASK!!!). I have just finished my second round of antibiotics also so between her and I, there has not been much time for anything other than sleep and making up homework!!!
I do have many things to share with you and I will as soon as I get the chance...I have been working on some cool things lately and I can not wait to share them with you!!!
On a side note...I really love it when you guys make comments on my blog (It makes me feel special!) and the awesome Baxter's {their blog is www.sdohana.blogspot.com and I would give you the link but for some reason this post isn't allowing me to link! Sorry! Copy and paste it up top!!!} seem to be the only one who comments and I love that they do...THANK YOU Thank you guys!!! I swear at least two other people are reading, right???
I have never met the Baxter's but they have inspired me more than any other photographers out there right now. They are funny, fantastic photographers and have hearts of gold. I highly suggest you check out their blog and see all the awesome images they take! They also tell a darn good story too! They recently posted images their 9 year old daughter Rain photographed and they are incredible!
While looking at the images that Rain captured, I had an Oprah-like "aha moment". The light bulb went off for me...like the Baxter's daughter Rain...Cassi loves to use a camera. Her images from Hawaii were awesome!!
I need to embrace this passion she has and teach her everything I know. If she can learn a trade and be passionate about photography...maybe she won't have to work at McDonald's while in high school but can spend her time photographing senior portraits of her friends or assisting/second shooting for other photographers...
I have this skill that I can pass on to her and also be able to enjoy more precious time with her while doing so. She is as excited as I am about this and I can not wait to start sharing her progress with you guys!
So thank you Baxter's for your insight and willingness to share!!!
