A Room with a View

Imagine looking out of your window and seeing this. There are so many beautiful places in the world that would make amazing views out of our windows.

The views in our life can be more than just pretty places. They can be special places. I would love to have an image from my brother’s property where we used to fish and crab for years. It is a wonderful memory that we have of him. Or what about the place I grew up. It definitely wouldn’t make it into a fancy magazine, but it is VERY special and full of memories to me. Let us always remember to take pictures of our special places. Maybe even find a window frame and frame the picture behind it as a beautiful work of art for our home and give yourself a room with a view.

About Extraordinary in the Ordinary

I am a professional photographer who lives and works from her heart. My goal is always and in everything to be better today than I was yesterday. I’m an ordinary person dealing with what I like to believe are ordinary issues, but in all the ordinary days, I want to live an extraordinary life. I am the mom to two grown sons, and there has been nothing I have loved more than being their mom and being home with them. And while you are always a mom, there is a certain part of that time in my life that is over now that they are grown. I miss hearing them play and having them with me all the time and having all their friends over, but it is time to move to the next stage of life or at least trying to figure out what that is. I am making a list of personal goals, connecting with friends, and still nesting even though the children are grown. I think I will always be a "nester". Home is where the heart is. I love home and love making it a healing place of peace and comfort.
