Let the chatter begin

Yes this is Me on my first birthday!. This is the first baby picture I have, why you ask?
"Back in the day" you see I was the youngest  from a family of 4 ( it was 4 kids in 5 yrs) and taking pictures was just not a happening in my house. Now I am VERY Blessed and Thankful that my Dad had instead a 8mm Video camera ( he was ahead of the time) and I can share these with my sons which I find to be hilarious,  of course the back ground dates it and I begin to feel  like I was born before the invention of the wheel. Sign of times a changing.
  Now fast forward 28 yrs. I'm the mother of 3 sons that were 3 and  newborn twins, you can best belive I have a few bins of pictures of all three as soon as they entered this world.

SO WHAT IS THE POINT?
Sometimes we look back and see what we did not have instead of what we did have. And I'm finding that the more mature I become the more I realize how Blessed and Thankful  I am for the memories that ARE preserved for me....
