Fall Season is almost here!

I'm so excited for Fall this year! This is going to be a completely new experience for me and my camera. Coming from the desert to beautiful Michigan, I now will have the opportunity to see the leaves on trees change to rich colors of red, orange and yellow! I look forward to wearing sweaters and Jeans :) and snapping pictures of my kids playing in the piles of leaves. The weather has already cooled off and a few of the trees are already teasing me with the change of the season. It's refreshing to me, being able to inhale deeply and fill my lungs with the crisp cool air. And right now I crave that feeling. Honestly it almost makes me want to cry (tears of relief). The feeling of having your body feel free and alive. It puts a smile on my face. It also reminds me how the seasons in my life are changing. I've gone and am going through things that I wouldn't wish upon anyone, yet here I am. I'm surviving, I'm finding my ground.
Soon I'll begin homeschooling my daughter. She's in first grade and I am so excited that this year she will be joining other children in a classroom setting. Once a week we will join up with a couple of other homeschooling moms. I'll be teaching Bible Memorization, Preschool art/activities, and K-2nd art. I'm gonna be learning the way my sister-in-law does things with her kids and believe me that is no little thing. We're gonna go on field trips and do all sorts of fun things that we didn't get to do in New Mexico. Even Joey is going to be in a semi structured setting. So yes, I'm definitely in a new chapter in my life and it just might be the beginning of a whole new book!
