I recently entered this photo in a contest sponsored by the new app WideAngle, and I was chosen as a finalist!
That’s my Gramma and me, when I was two.
It’s amazing how much Vanessa looks like me:
Vanessa also reminds me of my Gramma, with some of the facial expressions she makes! I miss my Gramma, and I wish she could have been around long enough to meet my kids. I know she and “Papa” would have LOVED these little ones.
We even gave Vanessa the middle name of Sandra, after my grandmother. She was definitely someone special to me. I even included this same photo in a blog post back in 2009, with some song lyrics that made me think of her.
Anyway, today I’m asking for a favor! Would you please vote for my photo in the contest?! There are only ten finalists, and one of us is going to win a Canon EOS Rebel T4i! That would go a long way in getting some higher quality photos up on this here blog!!
It is super simple to vote. Just click this link. Scroll down. Select the button next to “@ShapingUpMegan” and then click “vote.” No registering, no email address to enter, just a few quick clicks and a very happy me!
Voting ends today (Saturday the 16th), so if you want to help me out, now’s the time. I so appreciate it, thank you!!

Awh how sweet. I love looking back at pictures of me at young ages. My toddler looks very much like me also, so its fun to compare features! What a great picture. I voted!
I know that Gramma and Papa have met the kids. Just not in the way you would have liked. But they have certainly met them.
Love the photos! Voted!
I am so excited for you! keeping my fingers crossed!
im so happy for you congratulations on that great picture of the both of you
You and Vanessa could be twins! I don’t have any kids of my own, but my third niece is my spitting image somehow!
