Jenny, Easter '79

Jenny, Easter '79
I was reading Jill's notebook today, contemplating giving it today's nod, when I read this post (part of a self-portrait Tuesday): "I read somewhere that people should post baby pictures of themselves in places they would look often to remind themselves to think as gently, kindly and optimistically about themselves as they would about the babies in their baby pictures." This was as close as I could get to a baby picture. I'm 3 here, but I remember that those damn shoes pinched like a bitch. And I'm trying to remember both what used to make me smile like that (I think there may have been a large sucker involved) and maybe to be a little easier on myself when the going gets tough. (And no, you cannot call me Jenny.)

Clearly, Jill gets the nod today, but not just for that post. She also takes great photos, reads big books, and is planning on the big write.
