A PICTURE'S WORTH A THOUSAND....?

Words? Yes, but are they words that describe the photo or are they words that we use as ammunition to find perfection in others and fault in ourselves? I believe this recent gem describes it better than I can...

HUFFINGTON POST - The Good, the Bad and the Filtered: Truth About My Postpartum Life

It's too easy to assume everyone else's life is perfect behind their facebook and instagram photos. But it's not necessarily a bad thing that we try to capture the good moment amidst the raging storm of crying children and poopy diapers.

This week has been a doozy. We're working through some hard stages with the kiddos and without DAILY sometimes MULTIPLE DAILY prayer... I wouldn't be surviving all the screaming kids. So just a word to the wise, when you check out you're friends pictures and think to yourself, "they have it so great..." you're the one labeling their picture.  Because I can almost guarantee that they're label would say something like, "after 3 hours of crying and chucking a bottle against the wall, this baby finally fell asleep so I must get a picture to remind me of how cute they are... before they wake up."

my most recent instagram capture: While driving down the road after hitting up the bank, Layla said "Mom, you just keep driving and I will keep eating my sucker, OK?"

Have a wonderful weekend. We'll be spending ours HERE wishing kday good luck.
