This photograph is a reprise on the blog, but had not yet been submitted for the Self Portrait Challenge. I took this picture a couple months ago. At the time I was frantically treading and barely keeping my head above water. I had been unprepared for the challenges a new little person would introduce into our family. And the bathtub was my haven. It calmed my colicky newborn. It entertained my rambunctious two-year-old. And it rejuvenated my maternal spirit. Bubble magic.

This is so very sweet! I completely identify with you - when you find something that works for two children *and* mommy, you make the most of it!
I hope life has smoothed out a bit for you since then.
Oh how nice! I love having time like that with my girls, happens very rareely anymore though, bathtime seems so rushed these days.

I used to LOVE taking baths with my daughter. I miss it now that she considers herself too old for it.
Yeah for bath time!!
There's more than bubble magic going on in this picture. It's really beautiful.
there is something heart warming about this photo.
