Last night I was having girls’ night in with a few friends when I got a text from C that said “Call me ASAP”. A text of that sort after 10 pm when you have 3 little kids at home is usually cause for alarm. So I called him as soon as I could, and when he answered the phone he yelled “YOU WON!!!! You were voted Best Photography Blog!”. I was shocked. Since I hadn’t even known I was nominated until the very last minute, I never really thought that I would actually win.
How exciting! More so, how humbling – because I have many amazingly talented photographer friends who weren’t on that list, and if they had been – they totally would have had my vote. There is a pool of incredible creative genius in this state, and I am so grateful to call many of those artists my friends.
To all of you who voted, and whomever nominated me, to those of you who stop by on a regular basis – thank you. From the bottom of my heart, thanks for following along with my story as I chase a dream and do what I love.
Check out the other winners from The Hartford Courant’s Top Blogs of 2012. I was super psyched to see that one of my favorite parenting blogs – CT Working Moms also won. : )
