Perspective

I allowed myself a little computer time today, and as I clicked and linked and clicked and linked found myself on a mother/photographers' blog. I read her story of how she had lost her 3 year old daughter; she had climbed into a parked car as it sat in the hot sun, became lethargic, fell asleep and died three years ago. The mom wrote about how she still missed her and still posted pictures she kept finding of her daughter and how precious those pictures were, as well as the memories she had of the moments she'd just had fun with her daughter, in spite of everything else on the never-ending "to-do" list.

So, I dropped everything and did this right away because it was the the first thing she'd asked for this morning. . .to take a "baf". . .

And I took lots of pictures and even a little video. Now, I have got to get an extra hard drive and start backing up all the pictures I have of the kids, because I don't think I can ever delete them now, not even the bad ones.
