Best Shot Monday----Outfit

I posted this on my photo blog---Project 363---already, but I think it was the best shot of the week. Natural light at the front door, wardrobe by B herself. My necklace, B's hat, hand-me-down shirt, side ponytail on the right.

My little girl is growing up and appearance matters to her. I know those distresses of the teen years are coming to her. My hair won't do right! I don't have anything cool to wear! My face is breaking out! What will everyone think if I wear this? Ug. It's a time of great internal angst. I hope she will work with what natural gifts she has, and not be too self critical (like I was). And I hope she will not be too critical of others.

  2. I love this...great angle and composition. I can definitely wait for the teen years...I know I was never happy with myself, so I hope my daughter doesn't have those issues.

  8. She is beautiful. I am so glad to be past those awkward years myself, but nervous to mother a daughter through that time.
