Yesterday was Claire’s very first “School Picture Day” session. She had her photo taken in her preschool class by a professional photographer, and I wasn’t there. I couldn’t obsess over whether or not her hair was straight or her dress was just right.
Surprisingly, I’m okay with all this. In fact, I was glad to let someone else handle the chaos. I’m getting the hang of this whole Baby Steps thing.
When I picked her up yesterday, I asked how it went.
“I’m SO GLAD I remembered to bring my smile, Momma! I’m SO GLAD I remembered it…because it was picture day, and I needed it!”


AWWWW!!! I’m so glad she remembered to bring it, too!
So love your recognition of those baby steps. Letting go bit by bit and watching the little buds bloom.
