When you look into a mirror are you looking at yourself in vain or just looking at an image? I know when I look into a mirror it seems as though I am looking at every flaw of myself, I see dark circles under my eyes (too much work) my hair starting to turn gray and freckles I see an old woman. When I look at this picture of Samantha I wonder if I was ever that pretty and did I even think I was. She is so pretty and full of life, she is ready to go to prom with a friend of hers. It took all day to get her ready. I did her hair and make-up and that was enough for me. She had a nice time with her date and was in the house by 12:00am (thank god). When I took this picture I thought that I would be cute to have a picture of her looking at herself then when it was developed I almost wanted to cry she is a beautiful young woman with her whole life ahead of her I hope some day she will be able to look back on this and see that she is as beautiful as I see her.

Of course you were beautiful, and you still are.... you and both of your daughters. We all see our flaws and tend to focus on them, and age creeps up on all of us in time. But remember these things:
"But the Lord said to Samuel, 'Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.'" 1 Samuel 16:7
"Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised." Proverbs 31:30
