So lately I have read a lot about motherhood and how much competition there is in this circle. This comparing or competition starts when you are pregnant-"Oh you drink a little bit of coffee? Not me I believe any at all is harmful to my baby" to labour "Drug free is the only way to go" to when the baby is actually here. I think we all know what I am talking about in that department. Breastfed or formula fed-cloth diapers or disposable diapers- and the list goes on and on! Yes we can weigh the pro's and con's to each and every statement but what we need to focus on is our baby and what is best for him/her. It makes me so sad when mothers put down other mothers because it should totally be the opposite! We should encourage each other and empower each other to keep on mothering our children the best way that works for us! There are so many different personalities that I don't even understand how we could all do this "motherhood" thing the same way! This brings me to a project that I have wanted to start for a couple months now and I'm calling it "My Motherhood". There are similar projects online but this one is a bit different and maybe a little more accessible. I find myself wondering how other mom's do certain things. How do other mom's shower when they have a little one that constantly needs them? Silly I know but this is honestly something I wonder about! I also have had friends with little ones ask me how I do certain things or what I do for myself to stay involved in my hobbies. I thought of starting this project to show case different woman on the same journey of motherhood and to maybe learn from each other. I have 6 moms already signed up for this project!! It will be once a month and I will be emailing out a question and you can email me back within the time frame a photo that answers that question for you right now, in your journey. It will be fun to see what we all come up with! This is an open invitation if you are a mom interested in photography and would like to be apart of something creative!

You do not need to be the best photographer in the world. Lets stop this competition and celebrate motherhood together!
