As a mom, I spend all year chasing my kids around with my phone, capturing their laughter, milestones, and little in-between moments. Maybe you do, too.

Have you ever looked through your camera roll and realized you're in almost none of the photos with your children? As moms, we're usually the ones taking the pictures, documenting milestones, and preserving memories. But too often, we're missing from the story ourselves.
