I'm Like a Brand New Chick

At the risk of being cliche, what a year it has been. One of those defining years where things change so drastically that you hardly recognize yourself by the end of it. Through many worries, moving 3 times (twice clear across Canada and back), my son being born, and embarking on this blogging journey with a more concentrated effort, I have emerged happy with the result of 2012 and chomping at the bit to get started with the things that are on my metaphorical table for 2013. 
I  feel if it's one thing life showed me this year, it is not to get so down on myself when things seem to be going wrong (or are going wrong haha). It's just not constructive (as we always find out) to wallow, and when you view your troubles as a learning opportunity, new opportunities seem to present themselves that you hadn't previously examined. I am not one for specific New Year's resolutions, but I do like to resolve each year to be the best Steph, whatever I must do. What about you? What do you like to do to ring in the New Year as far as your personal goals are concerned?
The connections I have made through social media this year have been amazing; what a beautiful thing to connect with like-minded people are the world.Thank you sincerely to everyone who has supported me in reaching my goals in 2012. A happy, healthy new year to you all!

That was a lot of sap haha. Stay tuned for some exciting collaborations this month. Here are some of my favorite photos from this year (big thanks to my mom who shot the majority of my posts)
