Happy Ash Wednesday.

Wow, this would be a fantastic photo without the ash on their forehead! LOL!

Ash Wednesday is a day of repentance and it marks the beginning of Lent. Ashes were used in ancient times, according to the Bible, to express mourning. Dusting oneself with ashes was the penitent's way of expressing sorrow for sins and faults.

I won't be giving up anything for Lent (maybe one of these years), but Anastasia is giving up the Disney Channel.


Remember, O man, that you are dust, and unto dust you shall return. —Genesis 3:19

That is a nice picture. Did you photoshop the ash out of the other one?
