BSM Comic Relief

Over at Mama Says Om the theme for this week is Grace. The minute I read the word I felt that feeling...like I was going to have to find an image that encompassed the word perfectly. And as I began to ruminate over the word grace, I got kind of overwhelmed with emotion. I think it's just one of those words that can do that to a person. The last few days have felt rather emotional for me in general. Nothing I can pinpoint really, just exhaustion from the chaos of the whole motherhood routine mixed with a surge of hormones. You know, the perfect cocktail for a breakdown.

Then, I was going through a few photos from this weekend and I found this weeks gem. I'm thinking that if there were any photo that visually captured the antithesis of grace, this just might be it. And it got me laughing. Out loud. At that point, I couldn't resist.

Happy Best Shot Monday (the relaxing, holiday weekend kind). What would you like to share?

LOL a that shot of "grace". I'm glad you are feeling more chipper.

You HAVE to visit my BSM, have to, not because the shot is so fab...but for the ending of the post. ;)

Thanks

That shot cracks me up! She even has the plaid pants required for great golfing! Adorable, even if you can't see her face :)
Funny that this should be the theme this week. My shot is very similar. I think its important to capture our children at ALL angles...LOL!

That is fantastic! I may have to attempt a similar copy of my children for my DH for Father's Day.

Once again I typed my post before reading yours, so I missed the theme...maybe you could give a heads up about theme on Sunday so I can be prepared for it?

Tracey - my mom took a picture of me as a little girl in my Sunday best, scratching my bum. Your photo reminded me of that!

Congrats, Melody!

I can't comment on Christina's blogspot post because I can't do an annonymous comment there so I'll post here so she knows I visited... C - I like the shot of your daughter on the swing. Great color and light!

[Christina]

Thanks, Alissa - but that's Kristen's daughter on the swing. I agree, it's a great shot!

This is my view of "Grace"....the St. Leo Abbey bell tower.
