Week 21

This picture means so much to me. It was taken when I was around 8 months old, on my very first Christmas. 1984. So many little things from this photo stand out in my mind. The cabinet behind us, I remember it well. The photo hanging on the wall in the other room, I could almost touch it in my memories, that's how real it is. And of course, the love that my dad and I share.
I've set this photo in the tree like an ornament, and every time I walk past it my eyes fill with tears of Christmas joy.
I can't wait to spend this Christmas with my dad. In just one week, he'll be holding my babies the exact same way that he held me.

That is such a sweet flashback!
So sweet! You'll have to make sure to get some matching pics of your dad with your kids. : )
I love the picture! It looks great. Right now I keep thinking about how I need to invest in a scanner so I can do flash backs about more than what is just on my computer.
It's also great that you made an ornament with this picture!
