Picture Day













Today was picture day for the Jersey Jenti. With a little bit of bribery and a lot of doing whatever it took to make the kiddos smile, we got some great shots (not sure the photographer enjoyed my monkey impression as much as Grace did, though.)
Eric and I drove separately so he could put them down for naps afterwards, while I picked the perfect poses. Having experienced my silliness in the aforementioned getting-the-kids-to-smile process, the sales lady probably didn't know what to expect during the ordering. And I certainly delivered. As soon as the shots appeared on her viewing screen, my eyes filled with tears...tears for the happy smiles of our beautiful family, and tears for the smile we can only imagine. Another bittersweet reality check. But thankfully there's a lot more sweet than bitter these days!
