Is it possible....

That since Patience has lost weight I have bragged to much?
It could be.
However in Mother's defense this is my little girl. And she has come so far. Wearing jeans for Patience was something she did at 3 years old. And it took two more years later till she could wear kids clothing. What came natural for other kids was a struggle for her. So yes i bragged my heart out. Bragged with JOY.

For people that still look at Patience they still see a little girl who is a little over weight. But she is no longer in the obese range. I see my butterfly that changed.

I know for adults that lose weight there comes a point that posting photo's could come across as being vain. But in all honesty as A mother all I was saying is I'm happy I'm daughter has her life back. She isn't stuck in women's clothing. Patience enjoyed taking the photo's.

I don't know... oddly enough a comment was made it was weird how i posted so many photos. But the person who said that gets paid to get their picture taken.

This is my blog, yes I wrote it. This blog is about our life things we encounter on our weight loss. My feelings, Patience feelings. I figure if the wrong person reads this blog to bad. You didn't know us or how far she has come. You didn't know she couldn't wear a child's ring for two years. You didn't know on picture day she had to wear a ladies shirt.
When I post so many photo's it's because I'm happy my daughter is healthy.

So until you walk in someones shoes do not judge. A kind word is sometimes enough to make someones day. If posting to many photo's of my child makes me a bad parent. Then so be it.  But the one thing  you can never say is I dont have a right to be happy.
