Simple as That

Making Everyday Beautiful

Mother’s Day Printables + Embrace the Camera

Thursday, May 3, 2012

Tired of keeping up with the holiday hustle? Enjoy a calm season filled with MORE memories & LESS overwhelm: Join us for 12 Days to a Simpler Holiday Season.

So, who else has been trying to step in front of the camera and get in some photos with their kids in honour of Mother’s Day? A few weeks ago I issued you this challenge and the photos you’ve shared with me so far are beautiful and inspiring! You still have ten days left before Mother’s Day to get in some photos with your kids, and remember, I want to see your photos if you do! Email them to me, send me a link or stop by and share your photos on my facebook page, then go link up with Emily’s weekly Embrace the Camera post each Thursday! I can’t wait to see YOU and I’ll be featuring some of your photos on my blog next week as part of our celebration of Mother’s Day. 🙂

I’m embracing the camera this week with my sweet Addie girl. She’s had a rough go the last couple of weeks with a little backyard accident involving a gate that ripped her big toenail off. It was so sad. 🙁 She’s been healing up so quickly and it makes me so happy to see that sweet smile of hers!


Need a few ideas of photos you can take with your kids, download my FREE Embrace the camera photo checklist! It’s filled with 50 photo ideas and photography prompts designed to help you get in some photos with your cute kiddos! 🙂

Have a great day everyone!

    Oh no! I’m so sorry to hear about your girl’s big toe! During our move to England, I dropped a piece of furniture on my food and I swear it took six months (no kidding!) for the bruising and nail damage to heal. I was shocked! Most days it didn’t hurt but a long walk could bring on tenderness even months after it happened. Aww, I so sympathize for your Addie and hope her healing is speedier than mine!

    These printables are amazing. I’m not sure if it is because I am exhausted after being up all night with a sick little one while being sick myself, or if it is just that touching, but “I smiled while happiness tugged at my skirt” has me tearing up every time I read it. Just beautiful.

    Thanks for the great mother printables… I have a friend that needs a lift I think I will print it off and give it to her.

    Hope your little girl is feeling better asap.
