David Murray: This is such a hard decision, I know. And I also know that there is nothing more important that your kids! Bravo Stacy! You are the best! Hugs David (10.22.09, 9:44pm)

Alexandra Jusino: Your post brought tears to my eyes. Thank you... its a good reminder that although I'm cutting back on planning these amazimg weddings, I'm spending time with my family... and paying attention to what really matters. (9.10.09, 2:23pm)
Barbara Hearne: I know how hard this was to take the initial step and I know you won't regret it at all. We all work too hard or neglect the truly important areas of our lives. More of us should follow your lead. (9.4.09, 3:11pm)
DonnaVB: Right on, Stacey! I am proud --the mom/business thing we do it tough. Way to go! Miss you tons! (9.4.09, 3:11pm)

sticky: Bravo, Stacey! Brandy and I are so happy for you, enjoy the Holiday weekend! Here's hoping that Devan scores 3 more goals this year, but more importantly that when she looks over to the sideline and sees her parents, she'll know how amazing her mother and father are!!! (9.4.09, 12:32pm)
Shari Barnes: I came to the same realization last year. I went to my big calendar and marked off all the birthday weekends, anniversary and major other events with the kids. I have had to turn down a lot of weddings/sessions but it is MORE than worth it! Have a WONDERFUL weekend and I hope you get your chance to see them win the championship this year too! (9.4.09, 11:57am)
Kellie Kano: You are so right, Stacey! After accidentally booking a wedding on my anniversary 3 years ago, I've been on top of the scheduling! Good Luck to Devan! (9.4.09, 10:30am)
Sara @ Bella Notte: I gave up booking Memorial Day weekend this year to spend time with loved ones. Like you, I had all those inquiries to turn down, but I had a blast that weekend and wouldn't change that decision for the world. I hope this is the best Labor Day weekend for you in recent memory - I'm sure it will be for your kids! (9.4.09, 9:57am)
J Sandifer: Cheers to you!! This will be one of those decisions that you will not regret!! Have fun...good luck Devan! (9.4.09, 9:53am)
Samantha Warren: I've always heard and seen the way you talk about your kids and thought you a most wonderful mother. This story only confirms it. They are so lucky to have you - hip and full of heart! Have fun this weekend. (9.4.09, 9:52am)
