Mommy? Who is that?

Being home with a kiddo who is a little under the weather calls for a bit of creativity to keep them engaged...without playing too hard...and without just making them stare at the TV all day.

The little one has always been intrigued by home videos. She loves to watch herself...especially as a baby.

So today...I sat on the floor, pen in hand, and planned to watch old DVD movies and actually document what was what on the DVD case.

Low and behold...the first one I grabbed was from her coming home from the hospital.

The first shot came on....my back was to the camera...and I turned around...and my kid says....

"Mommy, Who is that?" Talking about me. Then I started talking and she seemed confused.

And in the video...my Mom kept saying "You look great...your swelling has really gone down."

Really?! She thought I looked great? Wow...

I hardly recognized myself. No wonder my own kid didn't know who I was.

Poor thing.
