Here is Sweet James and his missing front teeth. The right top and bottom tooth were knocked out when he fell a couple of weeks ago on the tile. Talk about making a Momma's heart stop! We were in the garage and we heard James start crying. I ran inside and the first thing I saw was blood and 2 teeth just lying on the tile. Thank goodness they were both baby teeth. Last week he lost the left top tooth while eating ice cream. I love to hear him talk right now. Especially if what he is saying has lots of S's:)
Pretty Soon We Will Have to Feed Him A Liquid Diet:)
This first FIT is a full plate tintype. It measures 9 by 7 inches and I believe that it is a copy of an earlier CDV photograph. So kind of like one of the first forms of photocopying:) I have several examples of this type of photo posted on my Flickr account.
This is an art piece I created using these Sweeties:)
This is Sweet Archie J. Pollock. On the back of this CDV it is written that this photograph was taken on Aug. 4th, 1873 and that Archie was 4 years and 10 months old. I really love his stockings and hat. I am working on an art piece with him right now:)
The tennis lessons are going very well. On Saturday the boys and I had a lesson together. I could tell that they were proud of me for playing and David said several times how he could not believe how well I could hit the ball:) It's fun and after an hour of chasing that ball you get your heartrate up pretty good. Also on Saturday in the court beside us there were 4 men playing a game. I wanted to run and hide. I did not want to have the lesson in front of them, but I did and I'm glad. I also told the tennis coach (a man) that I weigh 277 pounds and that I need to get fit and healthy. My own husband doesn't know how much I weigh, but told that coach just as matter of fact as you please and... the world still held on it's axis. It's all ok. I am starting to learn/trust that your attitude is so much more important than your size.
