MOMMY TAKE PICTURE - AMM JANUARY KIT
Design Team layout with AMM's wonderful January kit.

Journaling Reads:
When you were born, I took your photos constantly and you never objected. (Well, you didn’t have much choice.)

As you grew up, you went through a phase were you were very annoyed when I approached you with a camera. “No picture,” you’d say over and over again. Those months, most of the photos I captured were angry, frustrated, or annoyed faces. I didn’t mind too much, I loved those faces almost as much as the happy ones since they were all different parts of you. I figured I should capture all I can while you still let me take any photos.

I thought that eventually you’d find clever ways to hide from the camera. I have been preparing myself for that day. But, today, you completely shocked me. You walked up to the camera, gave it to me, and said “Mommy, take picture,” and you gave me the sweetest smile.

I didn’t care that the light was terrible and that it would be blurry. I captured the moment and thanked my lucky stars.
