Embracing

WARNING:  Bald Head Photos Below











It's Thursday...and that means it's embrace the camera day at the The Anderson Crew.  I thought perhaps I could also embrace my bald head with these (not so flattering) photos of me and the Little Miss.  Why post unflattering pictures on a blog for all to see?  Just keeping it real....



Silly pocket booth pictures...
My face is tan in comparison with my head so it looks like I'm a blonde sometimes...weird 

And, one left over from the other day with my "fake" hair.  I'm not sure that E was too pleased to be in the photo (or perhaps he had to go to the bathroom).


"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.  Attitude, to me, is more important than facts.  It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes.  than what other people think or say or do.  It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill.  It will make or break a company.....a church...a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will EMBRACE for that day.  We cannot change our past...we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way.  We cannot change the inevitable.  The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.  I am convinced that life is 10% of what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it.  And so it is with you...we are in charge of our Attitudes."

Love this post. I'm an oncology nurse- and was just having the "you may shave your head at some point" conversation with a patient the other day. It is such a hard thing for women to do- but I just tell them to "wear" their bald head with pride- its the mark of a fighter!
