Picture Perfect???

Sometimes I feel guilty of "fake booking" --

 We don't tell lies on Facebook or this blog,

 but obviously life isn't always as perfect as our status'

and our photos may suggest.

Telling the world about the 

bratty, annoying, "Lord, get me out of here"

parts of our day...

…just isn't that exciting, even if they do

often outnumber the beautiful moments.

Here I was trying to get a nice picture of 

the sisters together…

but Mila wouldn't stop singing the Scooby Doo theme song

and Willow looks like she's DESPERATE to escape!

Last month Mila plopped down and pouted for a good 10 minutes

on a walk home after her Track & Field class 

because a 5 year old boy ran faster than her.

A cute little picture of Mila riding a kiddie train??

Kinda hard to get when she refused to open her eyes.

This is the only "smile" she'd give

when Mommy wanted to take 

a picture of her in new "big girl boots."

Over the summer Mila visited her cousins a few times. 

Her sweet cousin Henry put some candy under her pillow 

and said it was from a "Lucky Fairy."

 The above video is Mila sobbing her eyes out

when she came back home and discovered the Lucky Fairy doesn't visit here.

Oh the many joys of parenting!
