My oldest daughter, Faith, said it very well when posting one of these on her instagram: “Real talk: Even though this picture is “picture perfect” it was a struggle. From spending hours on getting ready, having ten outfit changes, a meltdown because nothing was working, and going through 300 pictures to get the right shot. We are not perfect people and we don’t expect you to be either. I am so blessed by our imperfect family in so many ways. Remember, don’t compare your every day life to someone else’s highlight reel. That will only leave you feeling inadequate and lost. I love these people and wouldn’t want to do life with anyone else.”

Here are some of the pix including some fun moments. Life isn’t about having the most of what we want. Life is about making the most of what we have. Make the most of this day with every person you encounter. Smiles are contagious!
