I feel like I’m using my camera less and less these days — I only seem to pull it out when we go somewhere new on weekends, or when it’s a special occasion. It’s hard to take the time to appreciate and document the everyday moments, especially lately as I’ve been wrapped up in trying to balance taking care of a toddler with a rush of freelance work (I had a dry period of work, but of course when it rains, it pours! ) but I’m always reminding myself that I need to be more present in these precious moments that I have with her.

I’ve gotten so used to capturing my time with Mio on the phone, but I decided to pull out the DSLR today while we spent the day indoors on this rainy day…

Mio on a Rainy Day

She kept trying to blow on the fluffball at the end of this earpick, as if it was a dandelion. I only showed her once the other day in the backyard, and she’s already picked it up!

Our beautiful little girl.

Those big, curious eyes…

I love you, Mio!
