Recently, I was asked to submit a picture of Bird and I to an Adoption Agency we were considering. I was floored to realize we had no "recent" pictures. Well, none since this picture was taken just before we left Italy. FYI, that was 2 years prior to Yaya joining our family.
How is it possible we haven't had our picture taken together in 5 years?! More importantly, why haven't either of us noticed until now? Were we so in the dark with our fertility struggles back then we couldn't even think to take pictures of us? I felt horrible and of course wanted to rectify this "problem" ASAP. Bird's family came out last month and we had some family photos taken. When the photographer asked if there were any other requests I jumped at the chance to get one of us. Family photos are important but so is remembering our love for each other and how our family began.

That's a great photo! I've got some of the two of us but all candid 'hey let's get a photo of you two' type thing. Must fix that. Thanks for the reminder:)
You did good. Very nice picture!!
Happy Mother´s Day!
I couldn't agree more. I have so many pictures out of the kids and one lone picture of me and my hubby. It's hard to get him to sit long enough to be in a picture - he's generally the one taking the pictures.
I seem to recall a recent picture you posted including bunny ears...that would have been a good one to submit:)
Great picture. I think most of us are guilty of not taking our own pictures. The ones of the kids seem so much more important.
Love the photo... do you know I've been with my husband for 17 years & we dont have ANY portraits or "official" pictures of us...
You guys are so cute! Who wouldn't jump at the chance to say yes to you and your family?
Lovely picture! Good luck!
