Week 1

First post of 52.

********

The point of this new blog is to record moments of me with my kids.

********

After losing my mom to cancer at age 20,

I realized how few pictures I had of us together.

********

Now, I have my own children.

I have spent years hiding away from the camera

due to my own issues with weight & otherwise.

I was reminded recently of the fact that when I am no longer on this earth,

that my children will not care how overweight I was,

or how my hair looked,

or if I had my make-up on,

they will just want something to help them remember me and our moments together.

********

I am challenging myself over the next 52 weeks to post

one photo a week of me with my children.

********

Naturally, I must start with my first born who is growing up all too fast.
She now tries to wear my shoes, and I, when I don't look too foolish, wear hers.

Oh what a blessing to freeze her with me forever in time in this photograph,

if only I could freeze time for real.

*******

See you next week!
