HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!
growing up is a funny thing. when i was a little lizzie i could never have imagined MY MOM as a child. because she was always MY MOM. but now, as we celebrate another year of her life, it’s interesting to look through gorgeous photos of her youth and imagine how she lived life at my age. and it’s bizarre to realize i haven’t always known her. she lived an entire life without me, my brother, my sister, or even my dad there.
it’s interesting to see photos and remember who was in the photos at that time, and who would be in the photos today. i’m pretty happy with who my mom decided to keep around and who she wanted to be in photographs with.
happy birthday mom! i love you like crazy.
if you’re lucky enough to know my mom, you’re lucky enough

AN ODE TO… steve jobs.
steve jobs’ name is synonymous with exceeding expectations. and for steve, his mind, and his products i am so grateful.
his death hit me hard. my parents both texted me to make sure i was handling the news okay. and my friends were supportive of my ultra emo mood. i was in a funk all day. as a loyal fan and buyer, a stock holder, and a believer in all things creative, i truly mean it when i say iSad.
steve jobs your legacy will live on in all matters of innovation and creativity. {image via}.
if you’re lucky enough to have been inspired by steve jobs, you’re lucky enough
