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 219: The Gherkin


This building is a striking feature of the London skyline on which the kids have commented on our visits to the capital earlier this summer. Today we went to church at St Helen's Bishopsgate and when the children went out for Sunday School, they walked right past the Gherkin to reach the Sunday School building. They were very impressed. I had the privilege of hearing Dick Lucas preach: a real joy. Then another ride on the top deck of a London double-decker bus and a great afternoon with friends from college - another special day.
