old photographs



mom, when i was a baby, i cut my hair.
yes, honey you did.
mom, i didn't cry a lot when i was a baby.
yes, you were a very good baby.
mom, i don't remember a lot when i was a baby.

earlier, instead of reading a book to her, i pulled out one of her photo albums. the first one. we had a fun time looking at old (well, not so old) photos. i tell her the names of people in the photo, the events and where it was taken. we made fun of a bunch and laughed really hard. she was so into it and even noticed a few of her baby blankets that i still keep. it was a good trip back for me too. i love the day i first laid eyes on her.

mommy, look at my drool.
i've got a big belly- is there a baby in there?
i sleep on daddy's scratchy (chest)?

i guess this is my cue- i have got to get back on my project- her baby book. and since the digital camera...i haven't had a lot of actual photographs. good thing we had recently purchased a printer....
