I've never been skinny... :(

Notice my flabby arms and double chin at age 8.. and my zany grin!!



Notice my cute little belly at age 4.. so cute I had to wear overalls most of the time, because my lil Osk Kosh B'Gosh kept falling off my little round belly.. it's hard to tell by the pic.. but my mom told me this story earlier tonight.



Notice me now at age 26.. my bigass thighs, double chin, and yeah big everything. LMAO

I love my parents

I learned a lot about my parents today. My mom as a child grew up in a poor household. She didn't get a whole lot to eat in general. My father grew up in an abusive household. Now I can see why my parents make sure there is tons of food at their house, and why they always provided for us, even as adults. They had crappy childhoods and they want to make sure our lives will be better than theirs. It's something I never really pondered before. I will never take food or the clothes on my back for granted again. I've been blessed to have really great loving parents. :)
