I recently found this fun posting idea at The Goodwin Family, hosted by Jenilee. Its for just what it says, a walk down memory lane. Since I only started blogging in 2008, there are plenty of memories that are not well-documented. I went back to this time three years ago, March 2007 when the girls were 3 and 20 months. Oh, such incredibly fun days! As I recall, the only reason for this photo shoot was because they had matching outfits....to this day, still seems like a very valid reason to me.
An excerpt from my journal for Amanda:
March 14, 2007
We snuggled this morning—I sat in a chair holding you against my chest feeling your warmth and your hand, one fist firmly wrapped around my shirt. At one point you pulled away and looked up at me with your gorgeous green eyes and I sighed a very contented, happy sigh, so thankful for the moment and for you in my life.
Excerpt from my journal for Avery:

Blank! Maybe I started and got called away or maybe I wrote and didn't save it properly or the computer had a fit. Whatever the reason, I wish there was something there. What was I feeling, thinking, loving, struggling with? Yet another incentive for me to blog!
I loved taking pictures of my kids for no reason other than they are just precious. Cute adorable girls. Love the matching outfits.

ReplyDeleteNice to meet you via Wednesday's Walk! You have a beautiful family! Such great pictures! And you've made me realize how thankful I'm going to be years down the road that I have this blog as a gigantic memory book. We don't have children yet, and I'm looking forward to journaling our lives once we start a family. :)
