My mom asked me to come over to her house to photograph her bathroom before she did some renovations. She has some beautiful fixtures and an old claw foot tub that will have to go in favor of new, unrusted, updated models. Although she loves the old, it would be too expensive to rehab them for her new bathroom. It is a project that has been long anticipated, but there was never enough money for it, until now. Another bittersweet reality of my Dad's death- my Mom finally has the money for projects that she has had on the back burner for years, but of course, at a dear price.
Here are some of my favorites.
And one final shot that I had to include. My mom has seriously had this brush for as long as I can remember. It must be at least 30 years old.
I am a 38 year old mother of 3. I grew up in the Philly suburbs(where we live now), went across the state to GCC where I graduated with an education degree, and a husband. I spent the next 3 1/2 years teaching elementary school before starting my current job, as SAHM. My eldest daughter, E was born in 2001. She was followed by my son, N in 2004, and then our baby girl, K in 2007. I started blogging on xanga when N was 1, mainly to keep friends and family members updated on the minutia of our lives. I ended up moving to Blogger in 2007. I am not a consistent blogger, but I try to do updates throughout the year.
