Megan's first real boo-boo's. They are beautiful to me because, after the pain, Megan loved them. When the scabs healed, she cried and asked me where her "boo-bops" went.
During coloring time, Megan tried painting her nails with markers.

Sometimes we have to look for it, and sometimes it smacks us in the face. Here are some of my beautiful moments:

I love the tip-toes picture. As mine gets taller and taller, I see less and less of the tip-toes...and more and more of the high-water pants! LOL
