Why I Like My Daughter

There are many reasons, but these are two of them. First, I have been having serious problems with my skin lately, breaking out, and I think I have eczema around my nose, it's all red and flaky and gross. Anyway, Launa crawled in my lap and asked me to take photos with her on our computer, so I did. Then she wanted me to post them, and I told her no way, I look horrible, and she told me that it wasn't true, that I am the most beautiful mommy in the whole world. That's blind love for you! (Here's one of the photos - judge for yourself.)



Second, I waited to have lunch today until my stomach was growling, and I was regretting that decision mightily because I always feel like I'm going to throw up when my stomach gets rumbly, and I HATE that icky feeling. While my leftovers were heating up I told Launa that I didn't feel very good, and she told me, "Well I feel terrific!" Nice. She's just a little ray of sunshine everywhere she goes. Ha!

i like the like from the movie "the crow" when the guy says something like "to a child the word for god is mother." i think its great that most kids think their mom is the pretiest.

In your kids' case it's true, tho. ;) Yeah, it's pretty awesome. Kids really have no clue. Their world is wrapped up in their little insulated bubble, and they just don't know any better. (Besides their capacity to love is incredible.)

I haven't seen The Crow. Maybe I'll rent it.

I think it's a sweet picture! I like your new thumbnail picture too.

Thanks. It's really old.

Perhaps it is not an insulated bubble, but a tiny connect to somewhere better. ;)

Uh, the Crow is kind of depressing movie otherwise. I like it, but it is not a ray of sunshine if that's what you are looking for.

Agree w/ Renae. Lana was totally cherubic.

She's darling in the picture. :) And yeah, The Crow really didn't look like the most uplifting movie ever. It looked a little scary to me, which is why I never watched it.
