THE KIDS

Recently I shared some images of my beautiful (in every way) friend Michelle.  I promised I’d be back with more photographs, and here I am. 

The phrase “Beauty is as beauty does” comes to mind when I think of Michelle and her children.  Each and every single one of them is undeniably attractive. Annoyingly so.  The kind of attractive that makes me wish photoshop worked in real life, so I could simply lasso the girls’ hair, and gorgeous eyes, copy them, and then paste them over my own.  And then do the same with their flawless skin, and stunningly genuine smiles. There wouldn’t be much of me left when I was finished.  BUT the really beautiful thing is they are so attractive and so appealing because of who they are as much as because of how they look. They are probably the only children (and young adults) that after having spent a couple of hours in the their company have actually inspired me to want a large family (don’t worry dear husband – that thought left when I did).  Raising six kids is never going to be an easy job, but Michelle has done an absolutely incredible job, and she should be very proud of the young people she’s grown.  Very.

And HUGE props to the kids, who braved the freezing temperatures and impending rain for these photographs.  It was totally worth it for the Tim Tam slammers at the end though.

You guys are truly gorgeous.  On the outside as well.  Thanks for indulging us.  And for proving that hard work and faithfulness does pay off.
