GET in those pictures!!!

There is an excellent post on Pioneer Woman about getting in the photograph with your kids.  

It really is excellent - so go read, it won't take long!

I *hate* having pictures taken of me.  With so many health problems, then all the emotional chaos lately, I do NOT look like the person I am on the inside.  I am overweight ... really overweight.  But, still, my kids adore me.  They see me every day, they hug me and feel my squishiness.  They deserve to see photographs documenting that I was in their lives!

On Mother's Day, we stopped on a drive and went on a little hike (very little!).  We found a pretty spot, and I took photos of the kids.  Then I handed DH the camera.  For the record, I don't like how *I* look, but I love my kids, and they need pictures with me!

Now, I don't look like the gorgeous 18 year old that I was 10 years ago, but they are pictures with my kids, which makes them perfect!
