Clickin Moms Blog Circle – Interesting Perspectives

This month’s Clickin Moms Blog Circle challenge was “interesting perspectives.”

It’s kind of fitting that this is my first post in well over a week.  March was a tough month and I’ve taken the last week to focus inward and get my footing again.  I needed some time to get some “perspective.”

Since having kids, I have found the best way to gain some much needed perspective is to focus on them.  To spend time just being their mom.  So I rushed home each night and consciously hugged them tighter.  I watched them more intently.  I let the overwhelming love I feel for them take center stage and it helped to calm the anxiety and sadness I felt I was drowning in.  My little anchors!

I found myself peeking in on them when they were sleeping or having quiet time.  Their peace became mine.  So this month I captured just that.

    Amanda, I love the pictures and the post! They brought tears to my eyes. Since having kids, I’ve discovered the same thing – when the world gets crazy, focusing on my babies is by far the best remedy. You’ve worded it so beautifully and captured the perfect images as well.
