I stalk your photography blog and this one, too. I think you are AMAZING!
I'm glad to hear you're doing good and everything is okay. You're beautiful and deserve the best! Good Luck in 2009. It's always comforting to understand after a hard time that the Lord really is looking out for you and I know He will be blessing you and your little family.

I adore your passion and perspective and I'm so grateful that through tough times you manage to maintain that! You amaze me and I can't wait to see where life takes you from here...

Megan said...

Brooke! You are sooooo amazing and I am so glad we became friends!! I think the WORLD of you and I know wonderful things are in store for you. Keep your positive outlook on eVeRyThInG :) LOVE YA GIRL :O)

Lacey Jay said...

Your an inspiration in Photography and now in life. Good Luck Girl! I have no doubt you'll conquer everything you set out to do. I was raised by divorced parents, being positive will make the world of difference. I'm so happy to hear your already so strong... usually it takes people much longer:) You are one heck of a person. Now that I'm older I know my mother as a person and not just a mom and I know it takes strength, devotion and endurance to be a single mom. All of which I think you have. My prayers are with you...

Oh and I'm not worried your absolutely BEAUTIFUL.. You'll be snatched up in no time. All the guys in the world must be rejoicing knowing miss B is back on the market:)

Ryan & Amber said...

Divorce can suck, but can also be such a blessing. You deserve all the happiness coming your way. I myself have been divorced before and it's hard, but as you know, the heart has a wonderful way of healing. Best of luck and have fun with all the cute boys that WILL be drooling over you! ;)

Christy said...

You have plenty of GREAT things coming your way! (Some of which you have not even had the chance to experience yet, but are in for a treat. ;) You're much stronger than me. Call me. Luv you much xoxo

Kelsey said...

It feels kinda weird reading about your personal trials... since I only know you as my favorite photographer! anyway, sorry about your huge trial... i've seen a lot in my life, and you sound like you have a good head on your shoulders and are getting through it well! your kids are beautiful... take care of yourself!

Jim and Shana McGavock said...

Been there, done that... And it sucks. The #1 lesson I learned was to look our for YOURSELF FIRST!!! (and in your case you kids too.) It looks like you have a strong testimony that will keep you on track. I wouldn't have made it through without the Lord on my side.
