A Photo A Day

Today is a day that I am reminded how precious life is and that if you don't take the time to tell those around them that you love them, it is time lost.  I also know how precious it is to live in the moment and make every moment count.

If you have kids, you may be like me saying "where is the time going?"  My kids are growing up at a lightening speed!  So, I am stealing an idea from a friend of mine who is a photographer (and an amazing one at that!  Check her photos out at www.shportraits.com)  She had posted a blog a while ago where she challenged people to take at least one photo a day for the entire year.  Yes, that means at least 365 photos!  I thought that the idea was amazing, but like everything, have slacked off.  However, I am recommitting to doing it starting today!  

Just think of what you can do with all of those photos.  If you are like me, you are going to think of all of the great projects you can make.  I think that my project for this year is to simply make a book called "365".  How awesome will it be when I can present a book to my kids that documents an entire year of their life with simple photos. 

So, I challenge you to do the same!  Break out that camera and do not save the photos for only special occasions.  I am sure that we will all have our share of sad, happy, and miserable moments.  I am really excited about this challenge and know that I will be even more excited about the outcome!
