What is sick? | Northern Virginia Photographer

My girl...my girl is sick! My girl has been fighting a cold since Christmas. I let her stay home this past Tuesday and she rested but still was up playing wanting to do ALL the things "sick" kids that stay home from school shouldn't do. Then yesterday morning she comes in my room and is crying saying that her ear hurts. What does momma say...lets take some Mortin and your GOING to school. All the time I'm thinking she is really ok and just trying to pull one over on me. Well she spends about 15 minutes at school and guess who calls... the nurse. "Well she's here in the office and her ear is pretty red"

I pick her up and we head to the doctor's office only to find out the poor thing has ALL of the following:
Strep Throat
Ear Infection
Bronchitis
Pneumonia

YES all of that at ONCE. My poor baby. My niece said it the best..."OMG {she's about to turn 12 hence the talking in text} did she swim in a pool of sickness?"

I think maybe she did. We had a very long day yesterday and last night and it will be the same today and tonight. Every 4 hours I need to wake her so she can take her nebs (Nebulizer}. I NEVER thought I would be "thankful" that I have one in my home already for my son. WOW did I just say that. NO really if we didn't already have it I would've spent a lot more yesterday. Oh and did you know you can get FREE antibiotics at your local Giant? You didn't? Me neither...I paid my regular co-pay price at CVS and when I got home I happened to see that they are running that promotion right now. Remind me to watch TV more often.

Hang in there I'm hoping to respond to all emails and inquiries between naps today. Thanks to all my Facebook Friends that have posted well wishes to my baby girl. Here are some super quick edits of her doing her treatments yesterday.

Giving is Awesome! | Northern Virginia Photographer

You know someone. You know someone who's experienced a tragedy, is struggling to stay afloat, is raising kids while holding down more than one job, or is volunteering selflessly despite extenuating personal circumstances. You know someone who can't afford custom photography, but who would cherish it this holiday season. You know someone who deserves a year-round reminder of their family's spirit, love, and beauty.

You know someone. I guarantee it.

I want to know who they are, and I want to give them the chance to experience complimentary custom photography -- $1500 worth, to be exact. They will receive my top digital collection that includes prints, it's in your power to give them the artwork they deserve this holiday season.

Oh, and the best part? The person who nominates the winner receives a $500 credit towards my middle Collection. What better reason to show some love could there possibly be, people?

The rules:

* You cannot nominate yourself, and the person nominated must sincerely be incapable of purchasing my services. (Being unable to make mortgage payments for a two-million-dollar-vacation-home in Paris does not qualify as sincere financial need.)

* The nominee must reside in Virginia, Maryland, Charles Town, WV or Dover DE. Tell me who you know, what they're experiencing, and why they deserve my artwork. Please include a way to contact both your nominee and yourself as well.

* You must e-mail me the full story : snlprophoto@gmail.com

The winner will be announced on Christmas Eve -- get nominating! I can't wait to read all of your entries!

Open your heart to someone this holiday season -- and thanks for giving me the opportunity to open mine.

I can't leave without sharing a picture so check out the images I was able to get of my children. I wish my son would let me take his picture more often but mommy promised not to bug him again until his birthday if he did these. I'm so glad he agreed!

With love,

Stacy

The other Niece

That has been here for 8 years now. We finally got together for her bday session. This little girl has more energy than enough. If only I could still dance like she does. She is always the life of the party. "tootie" I had so much fun hanging with you. We will have to do this again very soon. Love you
