"My business is not to remake myself,
But make the absolute best of what God made."
~Robert Browning
Tuesday's. She is the mother of the
cutest little boy and always posts
the most amazing recipes with
pictures and great book reviews. I think
it is a wonderful way to put a face with
the words so many of us read each
day. I finally worked up to posting my
picture and not just the little profile
picture that I updated, but a regular
sized picture...I feel so brave! No,
really don't. I feel like I want to be sick,
but here it is...graying hair, wrinkles,
the glasses I usually wear [if I want
to see clearly]. I did put on a little make
up since I'm in my 40's for goodness
sake and I need some help!
Other than that, this is how
I look on most days if my hair
isn't in a ponytail and I'm not
in running clothes with no make up.
I never, never ever have my portrait
taken. I like to be behind the camera
not in front of it. When I have to face
a camera I usually blink at the wrong
time and my eyes are always closed,
I do weird things with my mouth and
it ends up looking like I'm talking.
Last week Emily rolled right out of bed and
took a picture of herself! Wow, not only
is she beautiful, she is so much braver
than I am. I was suppose to post and
didn't. I hung my head in shame and
tried not to think about it. Well, I did
think about it, a lot. I am not thrilled
with my looks, but I do not want to
pass my hang ups on to my granddaughter
so I am trying not to be so self-
judgemental. These are the looks
I was given so I must make the
best of it. It's hard, but I'm working
on it! xx
