I'll be 18 in just 18 days. How did this happen? I asked my mom how she felt about it- "I feel sad. You're not my little girl anymore. You're going to be off on your own before you know it." Her words were short, but they stung.
There are so many uncertainties that go along with the future, but the one that is eating away at me now is my career. How is someone supposed to choose what they want to do for the rest of forever? I have a family that will love and support me in all that I do, but I just wish there was an answer. I just wish the future me could send a letter to the past telling me what to do. I wish I could just wake up one day and just KNOW. But, it just doesn't work that way.  So, do I follow my art dreams to become a photographer? Or do I follow my love for nurturing and caring (and babies) to become a neonatal nurse practitioner? There are so many pros to both.  Today, I am leaning towards becoming a neonatal nurse practitioner.  I can assure you that will change by tomorrow.

Here are some of my favs from the weekend:

I love this last one because it is so typical of a 2 year old session! I'm glad I could get an action shot of the little miss.
Thanks to my amazing Aunt Theresa, Uncle Joe, Aunt Mary, and Grandma Elchert that made it to my piano recital today. I LOVE you guys!<3<3<3
Smiles and lots of love, Taylor

I went shopping. BIG time. I bought countless props including 4 chairs, lots of Easter goodies, headband stuff, cute pillows, a table, stuffed animals, (and the list continues). I'll admit that I also splurged on 3 Summer dresses for myself to add to the 500 I already own. (I can't help it! It's an addiction!)
I also couldn't help but to fall in love with these two frames while I was shopping. Little miss Grace was my very first client about two years ago and Sue and Jake are one of my most memorable wedding couples ever. I love these clients dearly!<3
Here is one of my favorite shots from the weekend:

Have a great week everyone! I sure will:) No school all week, and I'll be off to Kalahari tomorrow for some fun with my sissies and friends!
Smiles and lots of love, Taylor
