Mirror Me

Recently, my husband changed our screen-saver to a slideshow of family pictures from the past year.

Sometimes I catch myself just standing in the middle of the room and watching.

Remembering each moment, I re-visit the happy feelings of holidays, baby's "firsts", and simple pleasures of everyday life.

I never liked looking at pictures of myself. I could always find a flaw.

Now, I notice how happy I look in the photos.

My husband and son elicit an easy bright smile from me.

I'm learning that real love doesn't need more make-up or better lighting;)
