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 8: Introducing...

...Emily! Anna has wanted an American Girl doll for a number of years and was overwhelmed to learn that her grandparents wanted to give her one for Christmas. She researched each doll diligently (and read the online reviews for every single one) and decided on Emily for two reasons: her character is from the 1940s, and so would have been a contemporary of Nana; and she is British,  the only British American Girl doll. Nana and I were both very touched.
