I wanted to share this image on the blog today, because it will always hold a special place in my heart. One day over spring break I took Chloe to Lewis Ginter to explore the garden with some friends. I took my “fancy” camera along as I knew there would be flowers in bloom and plenty of photo opportunities.

I entered this image into their Million Blooms Contest, and it won! For me it wasn’t just about winning that contest that meant so much. It was God’s timing of it as well. I was in this season of really deciding if starting this business was something I should do. I had my doubts and God really used this achievement as a way to validate that this is what He had for me.

So this will always be one of my favorites. Chloe and her friends climbing on the 100 year old Mulberry tree in the children’s garden.
