I’m in: I’m going to hush for a week so I can

I’m in: I’m going to hush for a week so I can listen, learn and reflect. I’m still shooting so DM if you need me. If there’s a voice you think I should hear, tag them below.⁣

Re-entry, for service based business, is honestly

Re-entry, for service based business, is honestly a little scary. ⁣
⁣
We love our craft and we love our clients - sincerely. We have spent countless hours researching risk factors and hatching plans to do our thing as safely and professionally as possible.⁣
⁣
We have to test these new ideas: which might mean delays, shortages and disappointments. We appreciate and welcome your honesty and hope you will deliver it with kindness.⁣
⁣
We can’t operate at full capacity so we can’t pull in a profit either. We still need loans, rent forgiveness, unemployment insurance and thoughtfully designed and distributed aid. Please continue to support this legislation. We want to be running again... but first we must crawl.⁣
⁣
If you aren’t ready to be out and about yet that’s OK! We still need your help. Spread only facts about safety and resist spreading fear. If you love what we’re doing PLEASE drop that love on us through social media because your comments on our posts help us to be seen by clients who are ready. Your comments fuel our efforts and help ensure that we will be there for you in the months to come. ⁣
⁣
You are so powerful - every dollar you spend, the vibes you put out, your energy - it will all make or break us in the very crucial months to come. We really do love you and we cannot wait to serve you again.⁣

XOXO, Small Businesses Everywhere⁣
⁣
And from this small photography business in particular:⁣
⁣
💗 Thank you for the jobs you have offered me! ⁣
💗 Thank you for the gift certificates you bought for future services!⁣
💗 Thank you for the teaching opportunities and remote work you trusted me with during this time! ⁣
⁣
I have grown so much personally and professionally in the past 10 weeks. Thank you for believing in me and for reminding me WHO I AM no matter what. I feel your love and am I so grateful for it.⁣

Let’s talk PUPPIES!!!! How many families do you

Let’s talk PUPPIES!!!! How many families do you know that have added a new four legged family member to the mix during the pandemic? Not a bad time to train a dog with everyone home and let’s admit it: the walks are clutch. And the snuggles. So much therapy right there.⁣
⁣
Covi, who’s name combines COVID with Ovi (as Washingtonians refer to Alexander Ovechkin of the Capitols), is the apple of Lori’s eye and her quarantine pal. She pulled out her best Caps gear for their portrait together.⁣
⁣
Mae joined the Redfearn Kady crew in mid-March and I’m told the labs are just beginning to acknowledge her all these months later... ⁣
⁣
I was glad to see this trend make its way into #thefrontstepsproject here in Truro. Empty shelters will go into the “good things” column when all is said and done and we weigh the benefits and hardship of flattening the curve. Its been a win for animals overall, I would say “Our Bus” (a.k.a. Arbus) isn’t complaining either.⁣

He’s 10 and still says “bearK-fast” instead

He’s 10 and still says “bearK-fast” instead of “breakfast”. Whenever he says it Sam and I glance at each other in silent agreement: M is our only baby and it’s a matter of time before this word goes the way of our beloved “kaboon” (balloon). ⁣
⁣
We’re holding out on correction no matter how selfish.⁣
⁣
“DUDE!!! It’s pronounced ‘BREK-fest’!” says his friend T with an eye roll and a laugh as they both tear ass out the kitchen door to get M’s bike out of the garage and head off to school. They are running late and M has thrown his plate into the sink instead of the dishwasher. I’m sore at them both.⁣
⁣
It has been 10 weeks since T rang the doorbell at 8am. I would bicker at them for wearing shorts to school in the winter. ⁣
⁣
Now its spring and M dutifully puts his dishes in the dishwasher. He makes his own meals except for dinner, sometimes making me lunch. ⁣
⁣
“Its BREK-FEST. Like breaking a fast. Break-fast. Breakfast.” ⁣
⁣
He still mispronounces it. In between spaces are becoming more comfortable.⁣
