Before and After

July 6, 2009 by Minnesota Mom Filed Under: Friends of the Heart, Gratitude, Minnesota Me 6 Comments

(Because you know I can’t get enough of these “Before and After” shots)

Before…

Mommy Bear Sighting

…and after!

Baptism VI

I am still putting together the post for Anthony’s baptism but thought I’d share these two photos in the meantime. Cathie is one of my dearest friends and it was a joy—chaotic, but still a joy—to have our bouncing babies baptized together.

You’ll note that we’ve stopped resting pop cans on our children.

AMDG,

    Aw! How great to have a friend pregnant at the same time, and a real blessing to be baptized on the same day!

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥
