Old family photos

Is it wrong to have one of your favorite photos of your child on the wall from when they were a baby and now they are in their 20's? I have recent ones but I loved this one. I still have his handprint in ceramic but it is not on the wall. Does that make me an embarassing mom?

I'm afraid it does. But that's OK, mothers are supposed to be embarassing :-)

I don't think it makes you an embarassing mom...unless they are pictures of your kids in the bathtub or something...I hid all of those pictures of myself :P Parent's think that stuff is cute..but it is embarassing...

Can't wait till I have kids so I can embarass them... hehe

There is one rule for happiness: Don't sweat the small stuff and all of it's small stuff.

I agree with Jess- as long as they are not embarassing pics like she said, it's totally o.k.

Thank you for your responses. That is what makes this so great, seeing the differences in responses as this group has a wide variety of ages.
Thanks!

Once, my then-girlfriend had dinner at my house, and my parents decided it would be fun to watch some old home-movies of me as a child. I went along with it, since arguement only makes things like this worse. After about 5 minutes of embarassment, the video started to slooooow down, and get grainy... Turns out the VCR ate the tape. Oh, the sweet, sweet realization that my humiliation was over! Since then, my parents have been so terrified of completely obliterating this 'precious' tape, that it's stored away somewhere, and I am safe from its contents.

If you're worried about embarassing your kids, just think of all the times they embarassed you when they were really young and were misbehaving in public. It's payback time. One of the reasons I don't get upset with my parents for it. :-p
