Celebrating Labor Day: A Mother's Perspective

Happy Labor Day! OK, I'll admit it... as a mother, when I hear the term "Labor Day", I am reminded of many memories, some painful, some scary, all wonderful, and none having to do with a desk job!

I remember the "labor day" of each of my children. First, Scotty when after 24 hours, the doctor shouted "It's a boy!" and shocked, I said "It is???". I remember Brady, emerging blue and breathless, cord around her neck, struggling to breathe, fighting like only Brady can! I remember Michael all too well- five weeks early and so scary! I was not ready but he sure was!

I am surrounded by amazing moms (starting with my own, who swears that on my own "labor day" if there had been a nearby window, she would have jumped!). I am thrilled at the precious opportunities I have had to photograph moms right before and right after their "labor days".




I would love to celebrate this "Labor Day" by hearing your stories! Please share with me the highlights of your own labor days! The good, the bad, the ugly (but not too ugly- let's not scare the moms-to-be!). Can't wait to hear them all!

Happy Labor Day! ;)
Pin It!
