way back... wednesday

Back when... Glamour Shots WERE cool! You know you have some too... I think we all did it. My gosh... some of those outfits they put us in or wait... did we choose them?

I was 22 years old here and my word are those earrings BIG enough? That WAS in! The earrings had to be big & shiny... I owned some real beauties. The funny thing... with me big hair... this was not even the 80's. Really!


I guess if I could have retained anything from this time of my life it would have to be elasticity! Time & gravity do a number!

But... I truly believe... with time... it only gets better! Sure... I may have acquired some wrinkles... stretch marks... scars... gray... BUT they are all part of the map. The map of my life's journey. A journey that I wouldn't trade... it makes me who I am. So NOT perfect... but learning every day.

Oh what I would give to just not have the gray hair right in the front of my part!!!! You are right, it is all a part of the map. I love your insight on motherhood and the truth of who we are and where we are.

Yeah for your little one!!!

You look like you could have been the most popular girl on 90210! You are beautiful and always have been - but I think you are right - it's only gotten better with age :)
