Complete and Utterly Incandescent Twiterpation

This week, our very generous and photographically gifted Penny took our family pictures.

I have always wanted beach front family pictures so I was delighted by the prospect of finding a spot of beach for the shoot.

They turned out marvelous and I LOVE them.



Good grief, that's A LOT of estrogen.

He-Man handles it all well though.










Then there's this picture.
It makes me weak in the knees.
For the first couple of days I had to sit down and gawk at it every few hours.



It may seem unassuming to everyone else but I completely melted over the realization that the look He-Man has on his face is the one he makes for me alone.

It reminded me that he loves me...even though I'm supremely flawed.

Even though I leave the vacuum cord unwound because I hate the redundancy of winding it back up.

Even though sometimes I stop mid sentence and never finish.

Even though I leave the cupboard doors open but will lock bathrooms doors with no one inside just to keep them clean a little longer.

Even though I'M the messy one in the relationship.

Even though he possesses super-natural bathroom etiquette but was stuck with me...there will be absolutely no elaborating.

Of course, these are only a few of the small things but trust me there are a bunch of others even more obnoxious.

It makes me want to be better. Just because he's so worth it!

You were meant to have all those beautiful girls so you could teach/show them how to be like you and they will grow up and make the world better and brighter just by living in it.
