No Photoshop!
I opted not to post any of the pics the photographer edited and photoshoped on my website or social media outlets. I am not a perfect woman but I am who I am. Almost rocking 40 (proudly), I am at peace with my body and how it looks.
There is some extra juicy around my thighs and buttocks, courtesy of my pregnancy with Hannah. There are some dark spots on my legs from being attacked in my back yard from mosquito's. There is a mark on my forehead from when I had stitches as a little girl from running into a coffee table that often shines through the makeup.
There is a burn on my fore arm from cooking Hannah's father one of my coveted homemade meals from the time when things were "good" between us. I have a scar on my knee from when I fell off my bike....you get what I am saying....I am flawed. I ain't perfect and I refuse to portray an fallible image of perfection when no such thing exists. My bodies flaws have their own story to tell. My nicks and scapes and burns remind me of my experiences and how far I have come and how I have grown.
I am who I am and I am proud of my glory and my blemishes!
This body is mine and it is good. Ain't that what God said after He created Eve and all the Glory?
Yeah, baby! I am good.
