supergirl

She's the girl in two worlds. Outside the glass, but wholeheartedly believing she's inside the tank. A three foot tall testament that it's okay to dream. To be mesmerized by where wish you were. She dreams of the day she'll be able to glide through the water and drift effortlessly with sea turtles. But she gets so lost in her desire to be there, that she doesn't realize she's holding her breath. I've been there. Holding my breath. Holding out. Holding off the everyday moments. But I loved what Tracey said yesterday when she suggested that being present today doesn't mean you can't be filled with dreams for tomorrow.

Sometimes we just need to remember to breathe.

[Dorean Beattie]

I actually think that holding your breath in the awe of now can include the dreams of tomorrow. After all, our decisions today help dictate what options we will or won't have tomorrow. It's all part of the flow of life.

As for Epiphanie bags, they're awesome! I haven't gotten one yet, but plan to soon. I love that there is a way to carry my equipment and still feel feminine!

[Melissa]

I love to dream. Yet still, sometimes I forget what its like to be young. There are so many stresses of everyday life... Sometimes I will set all things "adult" aside, and play all day with my kids. In our little land of make believe lots of things get done, we build, sing, wrestle, and create, even though laundry and dinner are put on hold. Life is a beautiful thing we should not take forgranted.
I love the picture, it really takes hold of you. You can almost "see" what she is thinking!
Right now I'm dreaming of a perfect day with Belle.....

[LIsa]

This photo is precious! And the bag... oh, girl! A-mazing! Would love to win one!

[Whitney]

My mom just bought a bag and I want one too!!!

[Kelly]

What a fantastic picture!

I have been coveting one of these bags for quite some time. I love the Lola Bag in the original red!

[Sarah]

OOO Pick me, pick me!! Belle has been in my sights for some time now. I've even made a camera strap cover to match her!

[Cathy]

I like her supergirl tee! Adds mystery and thoughtfulness to the photo :)

I am so excited for this giveaway, love your bags!
