Thibben
I am a 29 year old father of 3, photographer, & EMT. My wife & I do our best to balance 48 hour shifts at the ambulance station with the growing business at our local photography studio; to balance 2 sons with a third oldest son who has Asperger's; to balance all the things we want & want for our family with what real life has handed us. It gets dicey sometimes but its always an adventure!
