Photos

Hmmm, I just checked the profile pic, and I don't actually look that different, other than shorter hair that is more grey. So, I'll keep it a bit longer.

I don't have any photos anyway. They used to be important to me. I would take photos all the time, and put them in scrapbooks to hold on to the memory. Then my kids could look at them. When I was away at college, and homesick, I would look through my childhood album for hours.

When I was faced with the possibility of losing baby Christopher, photos became sooooo important - I was so anxious that we get photos of him, since he would be here for so little time. But it didn't work out. He was born early, and the photographer didn't come until hours and hours later.

I was, and am still, so disappointed that he looks dead in his photos. He looks alive in my memories. I think I will get his portrait done one day when I have a little extra money. Then he will look like he's sleeping.

I never take photos anymore. Poor kids. A big 4 year chunk of time with no photos.  Maybe it is time to start again.

Sometimes I think I am getting over Christopher. Then I think maybe not.
