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 227: Birthday treat


This whole summer has been one big treat but today, to celebrate Johnny's birthday, we returned to Cambridge, the city in which he was born. We had a wonderful day, which culminated in a marvelous open air performance of "Much Ado about Nothing" in the gardens of King's College. We got there in plenty of time and got front row seats, so while we were waiting for the play to begin, Grandad, Johnny and Daniel read through several scenes together. Daniel is reading Beatrice's part in this picture and making us all laugh. Hey nonny nonny!
