I thought about sharing this shot of my girlies from last week for my best shot but since today is the kick off the fantastic blog series The Gift of Imperfect Parenting at beautiful Brene Brown's blog Ordinary Courage, I figured the much more appropriate photo to share was this one.
Today I'm feeling courageous enough to show you my real life at it's craziest, it's most absurd and with all it's flaws. And you know what? I'll bet you're cool with that, aren't you? See. I knew I liked you.
As I said in you last post, I encourage you to tune in to what Brene has to share in regards to 'raising our children with courage, compassion and connection'. It's a message you don't want to miss. Be sure to pop over to her series and snap up the CD ASAP. You'll be really glad you did.
So...on that note, would you like to share your perfect pictures (or the perfectly imperfect ones if you dare) on this fine yet flawed Monday?

I love both of those, but that second one is awesome! What a couple of characters!
BSM - Sleeping Angel
That is a perfectly perfect shot! My girls have started asking after a few "nice" shots if they could do funny ones now...so I have lots of the imperfects!
I picked a favorite moment from last week for my BSM.
Yes! My Broken Bagel!, and what that meant!
They look great, by the way -- free.
What great shots of your girls! It perfectly captures the spirit of being siblings...especially that second one!
BSM: City of Fountains
We get those same expressions here about 90% of every day. It's just life.
My Best Shot
that second picture is fantastic!!!!!

These are my "perfectly imperfect" shots. I totally agree that sometimes these photos ring most true to who we are and what is really going on around us!
My BSM

Best Shot Monday

I love the idea of imperfect parenting.
I need photo help this week! I'm in a rut. Hm...perhaps I should embrace imperfect photography!
MBS: Dress Yourself
LOL! Love the character your girls show in the second shot.
Here's my contribution this week.
Those are the type of pictures that make a mother smile, the memories you want to hold close!Much better than a "perfect" shot.
Mine is another moment to cherish forever - my girl and her best friend. best friend.
The expressions are great!!
My Best Shot this weekend was perfect in it's contrast to what was a decidedly imperfect (cold, rainy, cold... did I say cold?) weekend.
I LOVE how perfectly imperfect the second shot it.
The Squirrel Feeder

mine is of a new baby Blue Jay - one of two we've been keeping an eye out in our backyard as they made their way from the ground into a tree.
Love the eyes in that second shot. How fun.
BSM—soft & sweet
Love that shot!!! I'm sure it shows some of the personalities that we don't get too see on here too often.
Imperfect Family Time
What wonderful, fun, real shots of the girls!
Here are a couple of my Best Shots from a busy week!
Oh, so cute - definitely shows their characters! I'm finally back to regular posting (I hope), so here's my BSM - Pretty Cute .
Your girls are beautiful and have such magnetic personalities. I am loving that second shot!
Mine is definitely a shot of something imperfect and is my SS Wii fit photo contest entry...and I even reveal my age. *gulp*
Happy Birthday Me
Maybe I got a bit too serious on my post with my discussion of imperfections as a parent...you can not know the worries I have had about what I might do to my daughter's life because I was an imperfect mother! I so love the idea of this being a gift; I can not wait to tune in. Thank you for sharing what I know will be treasured by so many. Also, LOVE your silly shot...it's honest and rings true to who your girls really are.
Here's mine this week: Valley of the Teens
So sorry- I misspelled something in the link. Duh!
Here it is again:
Valley of the Teens
How funny! I'm so glad my kids are getting to that age where I can get them to be in a picture together. Your girls look like they have a ton of fun together!
Here's my BSM, taken after a long, hot day of gardening!
I personally love those kind of shots!
Here's mine:

I know I am entering my best shot Monday a bit late but the internet was down at work ALL day yesterday and I didn't get to get on at all until last night sometime. I love all of your posts and I am so glad that I found your blog. Your daughters are beautiful and their personalities are so vividly portrayed by you.
