This didn’t sound so bad two weeks ago

 

Day 10 (link to this here): self portrait

I’ve never been comfortable having my picture taken, I wish I could change this!  My girls are so photogenic and rarely do they have a bad photo.  As soon as I see someone point a camera at me I get squeamish.   How do I fix that? 

For now I’ll hide behind my messy hair.

I won’t say anything negative about myself, even though I want to. For example I won’t mention the chins (plural).  And since I’m baring my face to y’all I might as well bare my belly.

There’s a baby in there!

Lovely photo of you, and amazing belly pic!

My youngest is eight years old now. I remember that feeling of being 'great with child' so, so fondly...loved having her there with me all the time, stroking her absentmindedly, chatting away to her when no-one else was there...

How come my baby belly pictures are gross while everyone else's is s thing of beauty!

Oh, and your girls have been told they are beautiful over and over and over, I'm sure. I think our generation is a little better about telling our kids how great they look than our parents were...Either that or we start beating ourselves up with age.

Which is totally possible too.

You haven't changed a bit in 20 years....You are still such a natural beauty. Where do you think your girls got it from?

Emily said...

You are such a cutie patootie! Um...why don't you have a single stretch mark after, what is it, 5 kids? Totally NOT fair.

You're so adorable--messy hair or not! I would never have dreamed of taking a picture of my belly. Ever. In my life.... But yours is cute!

You look great! Thanks for sharing your cute baby belly.

I hate having my photo taken also.
