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 206: New friends


One of the many wonderful things about this trip has been the way our kids have made instant connections with people they have just met for the first time, usually the children of old friends' of ours, whom we have not seen for years. We have brief visits with these families and the kids seem to enjoy every minute with their new friends. We had less than twenty-four hours in Staffordshire, but the children loved being together every waking moment. We took another walk this morning, exploring the village and the beautiful countryside.

    I miss traveling through German countryside. It is so beautiful in this picture. I am glad it is such a wonderful trip. I am not at all surprised your children are making friends so easily. They are delightful!
