As a photographer, I record memories for a living. I spend countless hours chasing that picture, that smile, that moment...for other families. Sadly, I've found myself forgetting to capture our memories. This blog is my way of reminding myself (and others) that days and years go by quickly. Here's my attempt to not miss a moment of it!

1.11.11
A little bit about the day...today is my baby's birthday. Since he's 14 today, he probably won't appreciate being called my baby. But in my eyes, that's what he'll always be. I was lucky enough to have the district call a snow day too! So we got to spend a rare day together, all day, no interruption's. As usual, we'll be celebrating W's birthday over the weekend with a sleep over, a fabulous cake and Dave & Busters. So today, we celebrated with a coconut and here's why.
W and I have been working over the last couple months at broadening our horizons. Once every couple of weeks, we try a food that we've not had before (and probably wouldn't normally look twice at). Some of our food have included mango, pomegranate, radishes, kiwi (actually I loved this one already, but W hadn't tried it) and so on. A couple of weeks ago we were talking about coconuts and I was shocked to learn that W thought that a coconut was filled with the toasted, sugary goodness that you find in a macaroon. Imagine his surprise tonight when he tasted the bland, boring meat that is actually a real coconut. Too bad I couldn't take a picture of both of their faces when they tasted the milk....I was laughing to hard.
Most importantly, I just want to say...HAPPY BIRTHDAY, I love you more than anything and can't wait to celebrate again this weekend!
