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 225: Michael Morpurgo


Johnny and Daniel are big fans of Michael Morpurgo. He has written more than 100 books, including "War Horse" and "Private Peaceful" and was the British Children's Laureate from 2003 until 2005. At the beginning of the summer, we bought tickets to hear him speak at the Imperial War Museum at the opening of a literature festival there. Today the day finally came and it was as good as we had hoped. The children were thrilled to meet him after the lecture!
