breather

I'm taking a breather, though I'm quite certain I shouldn't. I've been working on a photography class I'm doing tomorrow for the YW (young woman) in my ward (neighborhood). I've known about it for over a month and while I fancy myself not to be a procrastinator, for some reason I find myself doing it at the last minute. I guess I just figured I love the topic and it would be so easy to put together. Truthfully, it has been relatively easy, but I wasn't prepared for all the work I would have to put into finding examples and taking photos last minute to show examples. Needless to say I'm feeling a bit stressed about the whole thing even though I am so looking forward to it.

I have a feeling after tomorrow evening I'll be putting fuel on the fire I've had for some time to be a teacher. I've always had this desire to share what I love with others. Back in the day it was human biology, today, it's definitely photography. So I guess what I'm saying is I hope this will be the first, but not the last time I share this information. Definitely a goal to add to my future to do list.

Your pictures are beautiful! There are so many that can benefit from your knowledge! I think you teaching a class is a great idea! I am sure the YW in your ward will remember the things you teach them for a really long time! Good luck!

You are a great teacher, and I think someone who loves what they are teaching makes a good teacher (did that make sense?) I hope you share parts of your lesson here :)

you will have to let me know how it goes. I know you will be great. I am in charge of the mini activities for my RS and I would love if you would do it for us if you are interested?

Maybe some day you will teach a photography class for the public. I would defintely sign up. I love the picture above of you and your husband, I really admire that you take so many self portraits. Something I know I should do more of.
