“These still life images serve as a daily reminder that my days are
awash in chaos, whimsy, laughter and laundry (sometimes all at once).
They capture toys and spills and puddles and piles. Sentimental,
solitary moments of childhood ephemera. A gentle prodding to live in the
now and stop looking toward the “then.” And though sometimes I pray for
clean and quiet and still, I know all too well it will come. And I will
yearn for tiny shrieks of laughter in my bedroom. For toys and loveys
strewn about. For signs of a daily life well lived. For traces of my
babies who once were. For reminders that Kids Were Here–and they were
life and light and love.”
