My first camera was a 110 as well. A little pink one. From there it only grew my love of the craft. Reminds me how bad I've been about taking my Nikon out for adventures lately.

I don't Facebook for a reason (and get a lot of flack about that!) because I don't think you get the real story in most cases.

It's hard as I wait impatiently for my baby to get hear not to scrutinize others. And I only hope that once she's here we don't get the judgement for our choices.

I have such admiration for parents and while I tend to compare in my head how children are being raised with my own childhood (yeah, sorry), I know a lot of what I think is the nostalgic effect and that every parent has to do what they think is best and just go with it.<br />Kudos to you for getting to the point where you realize you have to live life on your terms, not others and not imposing your terms on other people either. I salute you and hope I'll be that kind of parent someday too.<br />Http://Runwright.netrunwrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00670889747681239410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4813352342088131791.post-77720082149970754042015-11-11T05:31:58.379-08:002015-11-11T05:31:58.379-08:00Welcome to the land of not judging others!
