Getting Started

I am taking the time to start this blog today. I have followed the blogs of friends and seen how wonderful it is to be able to express yourself in a community of people who "get it". It is a little scary but here goes.

As I was setting up my profile I went hunting for a picture of me. It was then I realized, I have no decent pictures of just me. As I went through the digital archive there are pictures of me with people that are good. But the ones of me alone are not good. Not being judgmental here, they are not focused, or I am in the middle of eating, or half asleep on the couch. I could go into all kinds of deep meanings behind this (cuz I already have you know). But there is no deep meaning. I better get some decent pics of myself cuz I sure don't want my kids to look back at a half asleep, mother who hoovers food and is out of focus!

Then I found this picture from 12 years ago. An old one that was scanned. It is, and always has been, my most favorite picture. My best friend in the whole wide world (BFWWW) took it. SHE took a decent picture of me. She captured everything, my daughter's essence, how I want to always be support for her, the joy in my heart I feel when I am with the ones I love.

I guess there is deep meaning. I'll save that for another day.
