The Mom Stays in the Picture

This is an article that I read a few weeks ago that really spoke to me.  As I looked through my pictures, I realized I was the one behind the camera most of the time...obviously avoiding being in the picture itself (especially considering my husband takes better pictures than me!).  I often have to remind myself that my daughter doesn't need a "perfect" me (like Rian was talking about), she just needs me!

  2. Oh dear....I was just thinking this week how sad that I take lots of pictures OF my kids and none WITH my kids for the very reason that I don't want to remember what I look like right now. I'm sure, however, that my kids want to remember that I was there with them through these exciting moments of childhood.
