the mom stays in the picture

A friend posted this on her fb timeline a few days back, saying that she had been meaning to do the photo booth thing for ages and was resolved to actually do it this past week.

I'm definitely one of those mums she describes. I'm not a fan of pictures of myself - usually I am the one behind the camera taking the pictures, not in front of it. I've been especially bad recently as our camera is dying and so I've taken fewer pictures recently than I have done in previous years. I decided to look through our photos and see what I could find. Here's what I found since we bought our camera at the beginning of 2007.

So... that's 36 pictures. I did miss some out, this is perhaps half of the total.

But in that time I've taken around 5500 thousand pictures.

I must do better. If I get hit by a car next week I don't want these pictures to be the only ones they have. I resolve to do better, dying camera or not. Anybody want to join me? If you do, please share the link to your pictures :)

  1. oh this has hit a nerve. I hate to have my photo taken, but I too must do better. This sentence is why:
