My mother is getting ready for dying. How can this be? Well she is giving me things, like letters, and old photos of myself. I have begged her to stop giving me things. "Mom!, my house is tiny, I have been married for 26 years, we have so much stuff; I don't have room for ANYMORE!" Well, this is what she gave me. Yellowed copies of my wedding day photos. I have taken this one, and fixed the colors and and added the date on Photoshop.
As Jordan and I were looking at this, we both commented on how little I have changed. Yes, I am heavier, and I am proud of the gray hair, but I don't think my teeth have yellowed,(no coffee, no smoking) and I have to say I don't have any wrinkles. (hats, and spf 15) As I thought about whether or not to post these feelings of my appearance, I thought "why not"? Why shouldn't a woman of my years give herself a big old pat on the back? I don't think it is wrong to be happy in my own skin. Skin that is fabulously supple and young... hee hee.
