 Self-portrait Tuesday

A reflection..........




Hello there!  My name is Crunchy, and I exasperate my kids by spending lots of time doing things like staring at a mancala piece in my hand while incessantly snapping photos of my reflection.   They want to go to the park, you see, or eat lunch, or want help with a computer cd or  help in pouring juice from the heavy container, or....

"Just a minute!"  I say.  I'm having a photo moment, which actually turns into 20 minutes of staring at myself in mancala pieces, or the like.

Oh, it's hard living with me!  Bless them for their patience!  (as if they have much other choice...)

Have a great Tuesday!!!

That is trippy!  Amazing detail. . . right down to your fingerprints.  :)

 And yeah, this story sounds very familiar.  ;)  It's good for them right?  It's character building (that's what I tell myself anyway.)

Funny! :D

I'd feel a lot more sympathy for your kids if I didn't know what a great Mom you are.

And great self-portrait!

great photo moment - boy can I relate although I only have cats to stare at me like I'm crazy (because often I'm taking their photo with the camera one inch from their face).

I love this shot, reflections are great hey....ever try shooting a portrait of yourself in a broken mirror? now that effect is brilliant hahahaha. i also can relate to this, my kids know, when they see mummy with the camera to just wait a little while, i always try to be creative when i go out, i try to take the kids to the park, then i shoot like crazy at the scenery and subjects around me, that way, the kids are happy and so am i.....it doesnt always turn out like this
