memory restored

The mac is still broken, so I'm still on the PC with the jacked up monitor. But this computer is special because it is where thousands upon thousands of pictures are stored. I love going back and looking through years of photographs. This week, Alex stumbled upon this picture. It's a rarity since I'm in it and so is our dog Tzeitel. But what I really love in this photo is Canon. Her sweet little face, her pigtails, her arms crossed. And I had completely forgotten about her at this age. I can vividly remember certain stages of her life, but until I saw this picture I had completely forgotten this little part of her. Life was such a blur then; I was pregnant with Elly and working crazy, exhausting hours at the news station. I guess I didn't soak it in, mark it down in my mental calendar. She had just turned two and she was such a cutie. It makes me wonder what else I'm forgetting.

I love the look on YOUR face. "I'm over-worked. And tired. And just trying to be a good mother here. Do you have to take a picture now?!" heehee. You'll remember plenty - that's why you take pictures and keep a blog - to help fill in the missing pieces!

You have always been beautiful, but didn't you feel amazing being pregnant? Ya know minus the vomit and being swollen, and tired, and irratated.

She looks like a feisty little thing! Canon, that is. You look, well, lets just say it's a far cry from feisty. But you are sickenly cute pregnant person; I look like a bloated whale... not pregnant.
