So, I told you about going Paleo in my last post. I decided to add that to my List. I didn't replace anything with it, so it's technically more than 37 things before 37 now, and I am sure it might grow even more, but it's my list and I can do that. =)
I also added one other thing.
I won't go into all the details on the story, because I just finished crying and don't want to do it again. But I'm going to make sure that once a month I am in a picture with my kids. I have already been trying to make more of an effort to be in pictures, but this kind of drove it home. My kids need pictures of me... whether I live to 41 or 65 or 100. They need to see that I was there.
I'll post them here. In case you want to see my face, too.
Thanks for sharing this, Jennifer. It was very good food for thought.
ReplyDeleteI clicked through to this and then cried. I am one of those people who never want to be in the photo. I'll let you take one when I lose some weight ... or when I have make-up on ... when I am somehow a completely different person.
ReplyDeleteHow horrible if I died and my family had few pictures, if my kids grew up hardly being able to remember what I looked like!
If I'm not very photogenic (not the same as saying I'm ugly! I just tend not to look good in photos) all the more reason to take lots and lots so I have a few I like! In these days of digital cameras you can take 10 and delete 9 if you want.
Thanks for this. I'll make sure I let my husband take photos of me with our children, or get someone else take a photo of us all.
