I was inspired at the end of last year by Jamie to take 12 pictures of our whole family once a month for the year. I thought this was a great idea, considering most pictures don’t include me in them! The above image was my first attempt last month.
It was a Sunday afternoon towards the end of January and we decided to take a walk on one of our favorite trails. I planned to take the picture on the trail and brought along my camera and tripod. By the time we found a good spot to take it the kids were starting to get a bit cold and cranky. Later, the reason for this was made more clear when one of the boys woke up from his nap with a fever. So clearly they weren’t all feeling that well.
This picture doesn’t meet my perfectionist standards, but it does capture one of the things we love to do as a family, going on hikes and walks in nature. And that’s why I’m doing this little project, right?
Yes, it is why you are doing! to remember the things you love as a family with you in the picture!! So glad you are doing this!!
