My Mother sent a video to me today, and the message is important so I am sharing it here. It is a message I strive everyday to internalize. I think my photography has helped me practice this lesson…I find myself capturing the small moments more and more, and the big moments less and less. In fact, sometimes I purposely leave my camera home when I go to big events because I want to experience them “live” rather than through the lens of my camera. But I tend to find exquisite beauty in the little moments…those are the moments I want to remember yet fear I may someday forget. Moments like these….
Have a listen…”The Gift of an Ordinary Day” should resonate with all you parents out there. (You’ll also see Katrina Kenison’s blog added over in the blogroll.)
A Half Hour a Day 
That second pic is soooo sweet!!! To me, those are the REAL big moments.
Hey, why do you have my Dyson? Oh wait.. that’s YOUR Dyson! 😉
You’ve captured your ‘perfectly ordinary day” beautifully. 🙂
Thank you for posting this and for me to find!
