Yesterday. Give Me Your Best Shot

Thursday, May 6, 2010 by Lolli 24 Comments

It seems like yesterday that she was babysitting my kids. But it wasn’t.

Yesterday, I was taking her graduation photos. Wait. No, yesterday, I was taking her engagement pictures.

Or am I thinking about her wedding pictures?

It all seems like yesterday to me.

But really, yesterday I was taking family pictures with her husband and her little girl.

The Babysitter's Baby

It might seem like yesterday that she was a kid, but today she is a mom. And I love seeing it.

Give me your best shot at Better in Bulk

Now it’s your turn. What did you do this week? For those of you who haven’t played along before, Give Me Your Best Shot is not a contest, and it’s for any level of photographer. It’s simply a fun way to show off the favorite picture (or favorites) that you’ve taken this week. Read to find out more about Give Me Your Best Shot….And come back to leave the link to your best shot below (please link to your actual Give Me Your Best Shot post). And Grab my button(s) here and link to me so that we can get more people to stop by!

PS–happily linked to Cecily’s PhotoStory Friday, too!

PPS–Have you entered my super easy giveaway yet?

One more thing–I am so busy this month, I am starting to get that panicky feeling. Between having to finalize the classes I’m teaching at the Casual Blogger Conference to the many events going on around home, I am swamped. So I thought I’d throw out the “offer” for guest posts. Would you like to get some free link juice and new visitors and help me out at the same time? I’d love you forever! Just send me a comment or an email if you would like to write a guest post for me. (PS–I would love to return the favor sometime other than May!)

    Wow! I just found you through the SITS sharefest. Pro photograher, I’m not. But, if you would like me to guest post on the power of photos, I would love to give it a shot. :)

    I would love a guest post on “coptering”!! Let’s chat about it. :) I’m just heading out to take a walk with AJ, but anytime you have the post ready, I will get it scheduled. Yay! And I would love to return the favor after May is over.

    They grow up too fast. I now have kids that I babysat getting married. It’s just crazy talk to me. I really can’t believe it.

    I’ve never guest posted before, but I’d love to do it if you are up for it…and of course, I’d be glad to have you return the favor. Most recently, I’ve wanted to write about helicopter parents “coptering” my kids!

    That is so strange! I tried adding it, too, and I get an error message as well. I sent an email to Linky tools to see what’s up. I’ll continue to try thru the day.

    Shoot! I’d love to do a guest post for you (and have you return the favor), but May is horrible for me too :(
    We leave for Utah next week for 3 weeks and I still haven’t gotten more than 4 guest posters lined up. ACK!
    Hope you find more than that for your blog :)

    I loved this post! So sweet.
