mommy and me report

did i tell you all that i religiously go to mommy and me each week?

well, this week sb reader kristal (and photography buddy) and i talked to the class about shooting babies' portraits.

oh yeah, and we did one other thing too. we shot every. single. mom. and. baby. who attended class that day. which of course happened to be double the amount of people there are usually in class.

i am putting the photos up on flickr in a few days. i am pretty happy with them

Hi Jess,

I just read your comment on Dr. Helen's blog. I also found that grandparent post by googling "selfish grandparents." I am having a lot of difficulty with my parents as grandparents. They are divorced and both are remarried. My dad is much worse than my mom. I have nearly the exact same problems as you listed in your comment. I have a 2 1/2 year old son and a 2 month old daughter and my dad guilts me about not coming to see him often enough. He lives 1.5 hours away. However, after several times of going to his place and having him not talk to my son and watch TV instead, I don't want to go back. I am so crushed. How can he be so oblivious? It is like he never had small children and has no idea what to do with them. He makes awful comments to me. When I said that Toddler was challenging, he said "Well, aren't you the boss of him?" What!? I'm just stunned when he says things like that and I have no idea how to reply. Sorry this is so long. It's obviously been a problem for me for a long time and I am just discovering that I am not alone.
