"We are all so busy chasing the extraordinary,that we stop and we forget to be grateful for the ordinary~ Brene Brown

Our life isn’t made up of extraordinary moments…. they are made up of small moments that make up an extraordinary life.. " {Candice Sheiree Zugich from Blissful Maven Photography} Link to full post here: http://www.blissfulmavenphotography.com/at-the-lake/

For a while now I have been wanting to share some more snapshots. Moments that aren't perfect. That aren't that 'one'. That are small.  But even so, they are small moments that are extraordinary, just as they were captured.

My mama heart was touched when I was blessed to find the above blog post in a Facebook group. I was reminded of many similar moments in my own life with my 3 little ones. I was also reminded of the literally (and I'm ashamed to say this) THOUSANDS of snapshots that have gone unseen just in the last year alone of my precious little ones. Moments of them growing, loving and just being kids! Moments that are simple but oh so extraordinary. Moments that I am sad to say I haven't shown or even looked at myself since taking.  So as this new year gets going I will be starting a new series, Selah Snapshots. Here is the first peek. A few small moments from a day at Balboa Park here in San Diego. A day we met up with another group of photographer moms (oddly no pictures till after we parted for the day! Lol.). Sometimes it takes someone else to remind you what's important. These simply extraordinary moments may  not be the 'one' but they are beautiful to me.
