dear stephanie,
stop worrying about how you look
or what you are wearing
or if you have makeup on.
look at this photo. just LOOK at it.
look at cate’s teeth. look at the look on lucy’s face.
it’s a treasure.
i have never once looked at a photo of my mother and scrutinized what she is wearing or how her hair is styled or if she is wearing makeup.
the fact is, i treasure these. even though they were taken hastily, even though i forgot to take my sunglasses off, even though they aren’t perfect…
they are perfect to me.
i am not the only one in the family capable of taking a photo.
no more “forgetting”
no more “soon”
no more “i don’t want to be in the picture”.
just get in the picture stephanie.
love,
me
xxo
