I've never had such a hard time picking a photo for the day. We spent a wonderful morning in the Louvre and ended the day with a very enjoyable boat ride on the Seine. In the middle of the day we returned to Notre Dame, this time waiting a long time in line to climb to the top of the South Tower. There are amazing carvings up there, and stunning views, and this photo seemed to combine the two.
Inspired by my dear friend Allison, I took up the challenge to take a photo each day in 2011 to document my life. I embarked on this with some trepidation (I was not sure I would remember to take a picture every day), and with some curiosity: I didn't have a plan for this project and I was excited to see how it would evolve. What would my life look like, day by day, throughout one year?
Well, one year on, I am addicted to this project. I already took a lot of photos of my children but I have loved the way the 365 challenge has disciplined me to think about and appreciate EVERY SINGLE day - and the precious moments in every day that in the past have flown by unnoticed... I am thrilled to continue with this blog in 2012 - although it really should be retitled: Day by Day 366! Looking forward to a new year...

Day 181: From the top of Notre Dame
I've never had such a hard time picking a photo for the day. We spent a wonderful morning in the Louvre and ended the day with a very enjoyable boat ride on the Seine.

I'm so jealous! I love everything about Notre Dame, but the gargoyles on the roof hold a special place in my heart - I'll never forget my first time up there, discovering them. Your kids are so lucky to have these great cultural experiences!
