Saturday Photo Hunt - Sad

My 72nd

This Week's Theme: Sad

This photo was taken right after I had Emily. Shelby was sad for two reasons. The first reason was because she walked in and saw me laying in a bed with an IV, and lots of other strange cords and needles protruding from my body. She would not come near me for a while. When she did she loved her baby sister and she was sad all over again when she was told that she could not bring her baby sister home with her that day. She was even more sad when she realized that she had to spend the night with Grandma and Grandpa. It's rare to capture Shelby in a photo without her beautiful smile. I am glad that I don't have too many photos like this one!
