I don't know why family photo time is so stressful for me?? I guess I just make it that way. Maybe it is because I have to find outfits for everyone that have coordinating colors, I have to pick a time when the "kiddos" are going to be happy, and have to make sure my hair and my daughters bow look "just so". Not to mention getting the kids to look at the camera! All I can say is...thank goodness for digital technology! How did anyone survive without digital? Maybe that is why our early ancestors always looked so grumpy in their family pictures!
Although I do get a little crazy before family pictures, I am so thankful that I can have at least one photo that I can treasure for a lifetime.
