For posterity’s sake

For whatever reason, last Saturday I set about taking pictures of the kids. Not the get-together-and-say-cheese type, but close-ups. I wanted to capture the details that are most likely to be forgotten, the things I’m mostly likely to take for granted. The far less glamorous (but just as beautiful) aspects of day-to-day parenting. Here’s what Saturday, June 6, 2015 looked like.

7am: Somehow Louisa woke-up with her tap shoes on.

9:30am: Someone got a splinter.
