September was a fairly excellent month. I had several photo shoots, launched a few websites, and made nearly as much with Little Leaf as Mike and I combined (I mean, yes, our salaries are small, but things are happening, you guys, and I am so excited about it!)

From Gabe’s birthday celebration at a vineyard last month. I just love the way he and my mom are looking at each other. :) Exhale. I hate complaining, so I apologize for what’s about to follow but I have to tell you – it has been A Week, my friends. One of those weeks where you hearRead the whole post >>
