Besides, I&#8217;m a lot more photogenic than my mom.<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday my mom announced that we were going to walk up to Queen Anne. Going up is a LOT harder than going down. On the way back, my mom was so thrilled with the view she insisted we walk over and take a look. Personally, I could care less about views. I&#8217;d rather dig for something more interesting, which my mom won&#8217;t allow me to mention in this blog.<\/p>\n<p>We saw some tourists taking pictures. My mom said, &#8220;If I take a picture of your family all together, can you get a picture of us?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>They said, &#8220;Sure.&#8221; Mom struck a pose and I&#8217;m looking at her, like, &#8220;What is going on here?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It turned out they were a couple visiting their son, who is studying at University of Washington. My mom likes to give people information about Seattle because it makes her feel like an old-timer. Well, we have our fourth anniversary coming up. You&#8217;re not a newcomer, Mom. But it&#8217;s kind of cute when you play tourist.<\/p>\n<p>My mom wants me to add that she hadn&#8217;t planned to have her picture taken, so she was wearing her old shorts and sweatshirt. Luckily she got her hair cut so she looks a little ore together than usual.<\/p>\n<p>Please write a comment to reassure my mom that she doesn&#8217;t look as awful as she thinks. Tell her she doesn&#8217;t look old, even if you have to lie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mom says people want some pictures of her, not just me.
