Live, Love, Play

I am living my life with people who love me unconditionally and make me to laugh until it hurts. My children remind me daily that I am enough. I can honestly tell you what you see in these pictures is how we  with each other everyday. It has not always been like this. There were many days of tears and anger, wondering how things were going to get better for us. When we moved into our new place, we made a vow to each other to be honest, that our home would be filled with love and that it was alright to express how you felt. I don’t know many people who allow their children that kind of freedom when they are going through a transition, but I knew it was what mine needed.

My children have seen me at my lowest and they have seen me fight my way to where I am now. I never give up. NEVER. They give me a reason to not settle, to live boldly and with purpose. My heart is full because they love me no matter what. God loves me no matter what and I don’t have to change or prove myself to anyone. There’s no needy, pathetic woman here…never has been. Those who take the time to know me, are not disappointed. I have learned to live boldly, love with my whole heart and play hard. This is how I choose to live.

Michael - Great post Luc. I really love and respect the promise you made *together* as a family. I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately as a reminder to stay true to what’s important to us. And those photos! Love the photobooth!

Lu - Michael, that is so nice coming from you. You know I love your journalistic style of photography. It has been good having the family promise, almost like a family manifesto. Just something we need to keep us on track about what is most important.
