Whether you enter into the status completely unaware or enter with personal knowledge of what a life as a soldier is, you can never prepare yourself enough to tell them goodbye, kiss them one more time, knowing they are about to embark on a journey into danger and the unknown. You may spend sleepless nights wondering if they are ok, praying each time the phone rings it's him/her so you can hear their voice, or even swallowing back tears each time the door bell rings. You count down the days until they return, miss them on all the important dates, but know wherever they are, their heart belongs to you.

I have recently shot two Pre-deployment sessions and I am preparing to have one shot of my own family. We go down this path as military spouses together, knowing our better half is participating in something bigger than they are, so we continue to live in a Free America! God Bless our Soldiers and God Bless their families.

Blogging

I have never been much of a person who likes to sit and write about what I do on a daily basis, but moving to Georgia has given me the time to sit and reflect. If one thing I know about myself, it is I love to make a memorable mark in people's lives. This is one of the main reasons I decided to go into nursing, yes I have a Bachelor's Degree in Nursing =) My background is Pediatric Emergency Medicine, two fields I fell in love with while in nursing school. It feels so fulfilling when you are able to have a hand in helping a person through scary and stressing ordeals. My adrenaline always started to pump when the ambulance phone rings, not knowing what is coming in until you get the details, which in some cases can be way OFF! I remember the first time I experienced loosing a patient, one of the hardest things to go through, especially when it is a patient who hasn't had a chance to live yet and only has started to explore what toddlerhood is all about. This is why I decided to take my hobby of photography and turn it into something I also love to do! Making memories, something that will last a lifetime and then more.
