A few days ago I got out the photo album from my husband’s and my wedding and looked through it with the girls.
It was our wedding anniversary, and I was trying to explain what an “anniversary” is. I got out the book and told them that the pictures were from Mommy and Daddy’s wedding, which was five years ago.
They really got a kick out of the photos. It was fun for them to see pictures of so many family members in one book. They pointed and exclaimed and excitedly named lots of people, including their Great-Grandma S (who would have turned 93 today, by the way).
In the photo below Miss is pointing to my Dad saying, “Look, there’s Grandpa!”
They asked lots of questions about my “married dress” and what we were doing in the photos.
Miss wanted to know why our noses were smushed in the photo of us kissing.
It was fun for me to look at the photos and to talk with the girls about the pics and the day.
They asked me, “Why did you marry Daddy?”
“Because I love him very much,” I said.
I think it’s important for them to see and always know how much their Dad and Mom love each other.
Oh, I just love this… and love the look on their faces as they see these pictures! It’s good that they see your noses smushed!
