Momma In Focus Friday


Hip Hip Hooray for my very first link up and a very special one if I do say so myself. I cannot think of a better thing to strive for each week then for all of us momma's to get into more pictures with our kiddos! I have so few pictures of my mom and me when I was little and as I rapidly approach my daughter's first birthday I realize that I too need to make a habit of capturing more memories with her! For this week's link up I am posting pictures that were taken by Sarah Halstead over at Nap Time Mom Tog. She took these pictures in my front yard just before she left for the day and I was absolutely thrilled when I saw them. I LOVE them and it only took 5 minutes to run out front, sit down and snap a few pictures. I'm rooting for all of you moms. You can do this!!

Your pictures don't have to look professional. I'm not here to grade on that scale though I do encourage everyone to get creative and have fun with this. I will occasionally offer a weekly prompt such as: food (get a picture of you enjoying a snack, dessert or meal with your kids) or green (wear green, have a green prop, toy, landscape etc.) black and white shot and so on but, I won't always have prompts. I know it is hard enough to get in a picture with your kids so I don't want to make it harder! If you have any suggestions for prompts please e-mail me or leave a comment! I'd love to hear from all of you. You can post a single picture that you love or several as I have done here because I just couldn't choose. Lastly, I want to encourage you to visit the other moms who link up and share with them what you love about their weekly momma in focus picture! Spread the word and get your other mom friends to link up! I look forward to visiting each of you. xo.

Now grab the button and link up. Yeah!

P.S. I won't ever write this much again for a Momma In Focus link up post I promise! lol
