I love capturing life's smallest moments, which later prove to be the most precious. The photo above was taken when my little guy was 7 months. I am so glad I actually made the effort to find the camera while sleep deprived to take it! I admit, I may not have time to write a blog as often as I would like but I make it a priority to click away with my Canon or even just my camera phone (which is just as sufficient). Over the course of my sons 15 months of life I have seen how quickly it truly does fly by! The months turn into years and before you know it, your child is unlocking the front door and fearlessly walks into the world of curiosity, uncertainty, wonder, and adventure (yes, my child did just that, at 14.5 months). Seriously, it is completely mandatory for me to have a picture that I can hold on to for as long as I live to remember the precious moments. As I feel it is equally important to try to scratch paper/post-it note/journal/blog some of it all down to reminisce on those thoughts, visions, and images. Of course, when we actually discover we only have 2 minutes of time to squeeze writing into our schedules. I mean lets face it, (momma readers) were lucky if we even jot down whats needed on the grocery list. I know! But no... really, looking back and remembering those sometimes frazzled feelings and fascinating experiences of it all, is so edifying.
Ohhh, the journey of motherhood in all it's exhausting but joyfully entertaining glory.
Until JM's next nap time.
