I thought we’d kick this long weekend off right with a little friday funny…..

Little dude got into my basket of props, hats and blankets I use for sessions when I neglected to put it away after work this week. It landed by the front door and never made it past the foyer. Later on, after a few minutes of quiet, I went looking for him. He even managed to get one of the baby hats on his head, he loves hats, but he stretched it out with his big old head. In the second shot he’s pulling on the tassel….resulting in the 3rd shot which totally cracks me up. Funny

1. A few weeks before my Mom’s last visit, Taryn freaked out one night and insisted we take all the photos of her in her room down. She said “all the Taryn’s were staring” at her while she was trying to sleep. Part of me laughed, the other part just knows that this will come up in therapy some day filed under “it’s all my mothers fault”. So after we talked to her a bit, we decided to take all the photos in her room down. The day before my moms visit, she came and asked if Gee was going to be staying in her room. When I said yes, she asked if I would put her pictures back […]
