I've decided to join Barbara in her 52 Weeks project: " 52 weeks of daily life in pictures: trials and celebrations, the extraordinary and mundane -- whatever is unique to the week. Join me if you like." I aim to post one single picture taken each day of the week. Seven pictures a week, fifty-two weeks. Wouldn't it be lovely to print out into a book at the end of the year, with just a glimpse at every single day of a whole year of this blessed family life together? I'm starting a little late, but I'll just post my first week.
January 1 - a New Year, page one of our new family book.
January 2 - Kateri loves her new wool hood from her brother
January 3 -sunrise over the city, one of Josiah's miniatures
January 4 - this was not staged! Michael happened to by lying on the floor next to the open Nutcracker (illustrated by Maurice Sendak). I cracked up when I look down at this sight
January 5 - the girls pore over a letter from their friends, two lovely girls that they swap bird ATC's with every month
January 6 - on this day when we celebrate the bringing of gifts to the newborn King, Kateri was working on being thankful for her own Christmas gifts
January 7 - Eliza receives the daily lunchtime call from her dear Dad
There we have it, Week One. Want to play along?
