beyond snapshots- reminding me to include myself

Posted on | January 27, 2010 |

i take so many photos of my kids.  thousands.  most are just for me but i do think of some day when they will look at them and remember these days.  since i take the shots i am rarely in the photos.  beyond snapshots has reminded me to keep including myself in the pictures of their childhood…for them. thanks for the motivation!
i’m also posting some old favorites with me in them. even though i look tired and unshowered in most. at least they are accurate.

    Charlie, I love how proud Chloe looks to be wearing your lipstick kiss. Wonderful.

    thank you tracy- she was actually a bit upset when she saw the picture because she couldn’t believe i would take a picture of her with something on her face.

    Those are beautiful pics. And I love that you have decided to do that. I am terrible about not wanting to be included in pics….I’m either too fat, my hair isn’t just right, or I don’t have my makeup on. LOL I think I will need to use your philosophy more. :)

    thanks tree. i keep hoping that maybe they won’t care if i’m sort of fat with messy hair and no makeup. maybe it will be nice enough to just see us together once in awhile:)
