My children reminded me about a valuable lesson yesterday. All I wanted was the perfect picture of them. But, perfection is not attained without hard work, dedication, flexibility and patience.

I tried to get them to look at me - FAIL
I tried to get them to not hurt each other - FAIL
I tried to get them all to smile - FAIL
I tried to get them all in the shot - FAIL
I tried to get them to all say "CHEESE" - FAIL
But, then I tried to let them be exactly who they are - PERFECTION

So sweet and soooo true... I love this!
adorable! and although I love seeing pictures of your little ladies, I am just wondering if your arms hurt too bad to type a longer post :) just kidding with you of course!
Yes! Sometimes you just gotta let it roll. Let the chips fall where they may.
What a great set of pics! They are so cute. Thanks for the reminder.
ah yes, having 3 kids in one photo looking at the same cameral without anyone crying is... a miracle. And it should thus be treated as such.
Perfect pic indeed! That is no easy task. Totally adorable :)
