2 On Tuesday

Because andrea loves me she's ok with me linking up a day late. Thanks Andrea, you're a doll! 


Andrea wants us to share 2 of our favorite pictures. Now I think everyone knows I'm a wee-bit narcissistic so this wasn't all that hard for me at first. Then I started to think outside of the box. I tried to find pictures were I didn't necessarily look good on the outside but I looked good on the inside. Understand? 


The first picture that came to mind is one where I had just finished going down a huge water slide with the girls. I laughed the entire way down and when I got to the bottom and heard them laughing with me at me I was thrilled that I had stopped doing what I wanted to do and did something for them. It ended up being one of the highlights of our week at the beach! 


Yes, it's been cropped to not reveal my exposed ass! 


The other picture I had to search for. One of me with Babe, or holding my newborn? How about one of just me or one with Rogue? I finally decided on this one.


Every year Babe lights the fireplace and the girls and I sit down to read Twas The Night Before Christmas before they go to bed. This was the first year that the girls took turns reading it to me, not because it was the first year they could read but because it was the first year I was willing to admit there was yet another thing they could do without me. In the end it made me happy that they still wanted to carry on one of my silly traditions. 


Thanks Andrea, I needed to look at myself a little differently and through the eyes of my girls was a perfect looking glass!

I have to crop pics to not show my cleavage. It's bad enough my friends and family actually commented on a pic mentioning that I WASN'T spilling out of my top.

And I love those traditions of family. Here's hoping your girls continue it with their families, and generations from now it can be traced back to that one pic. :)

Awww! I remember the first photo and laughed again when seeing it, but I loved Pic #2 and the notion of time passing but sentiment and tradition enduring. xoxo

Heather's Happenings said...
