THOU SHALL NOT COVET !!!!!!!!

OK..

Let me just start out by saying.. that by nature... I am NOT an envious or covetest person..( I really do mean that...)

I mean I DID just write entire post about not caring about what other's think...

This should go without saying and is the same about not caring about what others have...especially my children.

I as their mother WANT them to have all that their hearts desire.

(Well unless it is immoral or illegal) aside from that..

No one ....I can think of has something that I would say I covet...

( Ok.. maybe Valerie Bertinelli's Rocking new Body)but aside from that...

I just don't " Need" or "Want" ANYTHING.

Than Maria walked in with THIS:

Holy Cat on a hot tin roof...

I almost pryed from her happy little hands.... I suddenly felt all warm and tingly ... People it scared me... I found myself petting and stroking it like a brand new Pomeranian...(I think I may have even drooled a little)

Maria being the kind sweet and loving daughter she is.. in spite of only having had it a mere few hours let me play with it... ( Man I am so glad I taught them to share when they were little.. it has come in handy now)...

We played a game of :"That a picture of that". back and forth for a good half hour.. Then she suddenly came up with a brilliant idea of ... let's go into town and be artistic....

Here are some of her shots....

Nice... Now Mom looks like a lush..... My gosh ... it was just one celebratory drink... You know.. the graduation... the camera... Her new job... The camera...

Hmmm here we have my Intellectual pose... or maybe my Mafia pose. either way funny as heck...It was sooo much fun....

I hate to admit it... I am ALMOST envious...

However... she does not take her camera with her to work... Muahahahahaha

That's when I find I can't help myself ... ( Kinda like having all that extra Halloween Candy staring at you when they were in school)...So...

Every once in a while I gingerly pick up this glistening new wonderment... and snap something...

Hey... it's doesn't matter that the pictures aren't super special...

it is how they make me FEEL ... that is super special...
