I Love This Kid!

As promised, here are pictures from "Mommy Spa Day". Before you look at the pictures, I have to tell you that I got a new lens for my camera. It's been recommended by several semi-professional/ professional photographers if you want your picture to focus in on your subject and blur out the background. I think the pictures are much more "crisp" (a highly technical photography term). While I love the pictures, I'm not liking how "crisp" the wrinkles around my eyes look. Yikes! These pictures don't leave anything to the imagination. So, yes ... I'm old. Please be nice :)

Ready for action. Make-up bag in hand.

Painting my toenails - with clear polish.
(I wasn't about to ruin my real pedicure!)

This is what the kids really wanted to be doing .... playing on the computer!

This is the best . . . Eric's "Mommy Facts". I appreciate the fact that I only weigh one pound. I especially like the answer to "What does she cook". Eric's answer: "Unknown". (is that a bad thing?)

The teacher put together a video of the kids each reading a few of their "Mommy Facts". Of all the facts Eric elects to recite on video for everyone to hear .... My mom is 48 years old. I'm at least ten years older than the next oldest mom in the room. Thanks Eric! I'm so glad everyone now knows that I'm practically old enough to be your grandma. (or maybe my wrinkles already gave it away?!) Regardless, I LOVE THIS KID! He makes me laugh and one can never get too much of that.

Have a great weekend and for all the moms, have a very, very happy Mother's Day!
