Happy Birthday Summer!

My family quotes the movie "What About Bob". I know, absurd. It's likely due to repeat exposure which resulted in fits of laughter, and the fact that at any given time, aren't we all Bob?

 "The simplest way to put it is, I have problems..." -classic, Bob Wiley

Who can't relate to that? It was with these ingrained quotes, and self-depreciating sentiments that I picked up this clearanced-out-no-authorship-included Giclee print and personalized it for my sisters birthday. 

So I'll let you in on our inside joke. At no time, ever, in our existence would either of us, ever, utter any of these phrases about ourselves. I can guarantee these thoughts  have never so much as even entered our thought realm. We are too preoccupied fighting off personal demons for such self-congratulatory mantra's. Though enter, my positive self-pro-motive humorist. Many modern women are self critical, about some aspect of self or another. So with a bit of humor and perhaps an encouraging nudge towards at least self acceptance, this is my gift to her. In turn I hope it gives you a boost up the self-esteem spectrum as well, or at least a smile.
