The Mother of my Children

I'm in love with the mother of my children.

Megan, who is often critical of her mothering skills, is an incredible mother. Not only does she cook great/healthy meals, manage the budget, and manage the household superbly, she takes time every day to connect with the kids.

Here's a few of these moments I've capture over the years. These some of the quiet, intimate, thankless moments that make up motherhood.
