The Sam Project
Motherhood is nothing short of scary. I am constantly searching for balance. To focus on one thing at a time. To give my children, most importantly, my all. In my 2 1/2 short years of parenting, I continue to believe having a daughter might just prove to be the scariest endeavor I'll face. I fear doing, saying, or being the wrong thing and I'm well aware that we haven't even begun to scratch the surface.
This is Sam in a dress I once wore. To see her as so much of myself gives me perspective. Perspective on my ability to do my best as a mother and the hope that my best might be worth remembering.
