My Shadow

While I was outside playing with Jake this past weekend, I realized something. I'm glad I had my phone with me because that realization prompted me to take a few pictures....of my shadow.

This is probably not the best picture because I seem to have a slightly poochy belly - and although I might, it's not the belly pooch I would like to have. Sorry, Terry, I can wish - can't I?

The "pooch" in this picture is actually my arm. Believe it if you want, but that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

ANYWAY...me and my belly are so not the point of this post.

While playing outside with Jake - like I do so often - I realized that my shadow has changed. True, my shadow has not always included a belly pooch, but again, that's not the point here.

Although that picture was just taken three days ago, my shadow no longer looks like the picture above. My shadow now looks like this.....

This is my shadow.
ALL. THE. TIME.
EVERYWHERE. I. GO.
And when I say everywhere, I mean everywhere. Any of you fellow mamas of toddlers feel me on this one, I'm sure.
Yes, my shadow has changed. But I wouldn't trade it for the world!
