This picture is the perfect representation of our family.  He is handsome, the girl is so cute and happy and we are having a great and goofy time at a time when we are supposed to be getting that perfect shot!

To answer the question, Water Lily comes from an episode of my very favorite TV show, The Golden Girls.

Blanche says to Dorothy, “It’s funny how that happened.  There I was, staying up last night, coming up with excuses to get out of this.  And then it occurred to me.  I said, “Water Lily” That’s what I call myself sometimes.

And since exposing the husband to the entire series or forcing him to watch them, every time I say to him, “I said to myself…”, he responds with “Water Lily….”.

And there you have it.  I have adapted to calling myself this when it is just her and I.

I do not why the husband calls his instagram FoodFanBoy but he makes the most wonderful food and posts beautiful photos, so check him out at https://www.instagram.com/foodfanboy/.

Now, let me just say straight out – I am the authority of squat.  I do not even do squats. I post my thoughts, current convictions and understanding and opinions.  I do not even claim to be consistent in any of those things. In fact, between me, myself and Water Lily, I contradict  myself all the time.  I hope you know that I am not trying to educate anyone or publish any great work here.  I am just blabbing.
