Well, I haven't posted in a while, sorry about that. I've been sort of busy. Now I'm about to go get fitted for new clothes for a photo shoot this week; something I'm not very excited about.
Have I mentioned that I have having my picture taken? I always look back at them with so much disgust and self-loathing. Why am I this way? Anyways, I got my hair done, so at least I feel good about that.
Maybe I'll post some pictures once they're done.
Talk soon

Amy, When I talked to you earlier today, You sounded excited to go to the fitting! I hope you had fun and you werent too self critical...cant wait for the release this summer! HUGS! Jo
Amy, I hope that you are having a great time with the new clothes... I can't wait to see the pictures... enjoy the experience. It isn't something that everyone gets to do.
You are beautiful, even if you don't always see it yourself. This is something I have to remind myself of... I tend to judge my shape and my body, but what other people see is ME... all of me, not just my flabby thighs or stretch marked stomach, which is what I focus on. We are more than what we see.
Amy, I wanted to find a way to get a message to you somehow and I came across your blog. I was at your benefit for the Hope Clinic tonight at Brentwood Baptist and the little speech you did about you and your husband's testimony really hit me. I was sitting there crying on the inside because everything you had said about yourself has basically happened in my life. If I had a dime for everytime my family has told me I need to lose weight to get a man I could buy myself a man! I also use humor to cover up some of the pain. I just wanted to let you know that I felt your courage up there as you spoke and it resonated with me. Thank you and the concert was beautiful!

A photo shoot? For the new Selah album, I hope!!! :D
Or maybe some solo stuff? Ahhh!
Anyway.
Say. Have you ever read anything by Walt Whitman? Famous American Poet. Arguably, THE American poet. He has a poem called "Song of Myself." Here's a link: http://www.princeton.edu/~batke/logr/log_026.html. You may not find time to read the entire thing, but stanza three is really important. It's a poem I go back to a lot, and a poem I've drawn a lot of my life perspective from. I just thought you might like it. :)
