I Heart Faces: Motherhood

I was not planning on entering a photo on I Heart Faces this week.

I love this week's challenge but I did not have a photo in mind. 

Then I stumbled across this photo...

I took it a couple of weeks ago when Ethan and I were playing around with my camera.

He was taking pictures of himself in our floor length mirrors. 

After playing for about 20 minutes, and taking about 100 photos, I had told him it was time to stop and he was thoroughly disappointed.

So I picked him up and held him for a minute and reassured him we had another fun activity planned right around the corner.

I happened to snap this photo on a whim.

It's not the most glamorous picture ever taken.

My hair is a mess, the closet door is open, the sheets on my bed are not straight, I look pregnant, but to me it is the definition of motherhood.

I little frazzled, not perfect, but stopping everything to comfort your little one.
