Picture Day!!!!

What a crazy 6 weeks it's been since my last post.  No, I haven't forgotten about DownRightLiving.com  It's just that I've been sick.  Then my kids got sick.  Then I got sick AGAIN.  Hopefully, now that summer is just about here, I'll be done for the year (cross your fingers!)

Today, I got such a treat. Jacob brought home school pictures!

Now, I don't know what happened between the time when I was a kid and we took pictures only once per year.  No re-takes.  You got what you got.  And most of the time, what I received was something I wanted to hide in a deep dark corner in the recesses of my room.  No seriously.  I have proof. See?
  

Now a days, kids get to take school pictures, re-takes if they don't like them the first time, and a second set of school pictures at the end of the school year!  The first couple times I saw the request for school picture money come through our home I scoffed.  Why do you need TWO sets of pictures?  But for Jake, who is only 3 anyway, 7 months makes a big difference.  Case in point:  Beginning of the year pictures & End of the year pics.  


My daughter, Elisha LOVES his beginning of the year pics.  I don't.  I love love LOVE his new one.  So much so that I've already posted it on Facebook, Instagram, and (now) here.  Yes, I'm a doting mother.  I can't handle it!  I just love my little guy so much!  Enjoy :)
