So it's time for my Thursday Pinterest column, though I won't continue doing it because some photographers are really against it and after my first Pinterest post, I got a lot of slack from a few people whom I featured and I really don't want to deal with that going forward. They were nice enough, but they seem to dislike sites like Pinterest (I loooove it on the other hand) so for now I'm going to just forget my idea to spotlight the finds I come across on Pinterest. My final "pinned" post is dedicated to quotes because I love them so much -- a book without quotes, a magazine without quotes, I don't know... it's just not the same for me. I love little thoughts randomly scattered, quick bites of inspiration... So here are some for you. I bet at least one of them your mother said, in fact I bet you 10 bucks!

"Small things become great when done with love" by Because It's Awesome. "To live is the rarest thing in the world, most people exist, that is all" - via Ms. Valo. "I believe in pink" designed and sold by Elissa Hudson. "Everything happens for a reason" by the Love Shop. "Happy girls are the prettiest" via Ache. "Be awesome today" - Lucius Art. "Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle" by Wren Fern (no website). "Don't forget to be awesome" by Super Swoon. "Today is a new day." - Unknown, please tell me so I can linky link it. Found! It's from Erin Jane Art Prints (thank you Nicky!).

What are some of YOUR favorite quotes anyway? Do you have something to share that your mother always said? Go ahead, make me laugh. My mother was the quote queen you guys.... she was always telling me something she read somewhere -- or heard from her very quotable mother. What a riot.
