this is me. my home. the warm red walls. the imperfections. my favorite part of this picture...if you look closely around our thermostat, you can see the unpainted rectangle shape of our old thermostat. we're too busy loving each other to rummage in the basement for the red paint and make it perfect. we're not that kind of family. we like to remember the old things. unfinished projects and unmitered corners.
i took this picture a couple of weeks back with the self timer, trying to get a full body shot for the egg donation application. this is what i got. imperfect. red. warm.
other self portrait challenge peeps: go here.

I love everything about this photo.
such an evocative photo! i love it.
thanks for the heads up on that mama situation, I will be lightin' one here for her as well.
hope Gracie is feeling better. That bug is running rampant at my school, and I am terrified.....if I weren't preggo, I would be drinking Lysol right now I think....
"too busy loving each other"... perfectly you and your home.
how's the donating going??
i'll join you in burning that candle for Dar's family. they need all the healing energy they can get!
this post makes me want to run home and get cozy!
a beautiful home and family :)
hope you all are feelin' better.
This is a beautiful photo!
this is just glorious... and i loved what you shared to nina ~~
you are a ruby miracle.
Perfectly imperfect. The love your family has and the things you do to maintain a wonderful balance always come shining through. This is a wonderful photo and and an even more wonderful sentiment.
