I love all of these photos so much. See you next week! The Savor Project is a weekly project for 2013. You can see a detailed post on my goal and other details here. Today is about David’s swimming class. He passes a big milestone and got his backstroke ribbon. It never ceases to amaze me how many milestones happen during December. Then I think, there are milestones each month, we just don’t pay as close attention. Which, of course, made me think that I certainly should pay much closer attention from now on.

there we go. That’s day eleven. See you tomorrow.
I read about The End of Your Life Bookclub a long time ago, I am not even sure what made me start reading it. But I am so glad I did. It was probably the best non-fiction book I read all year. I loved the mother-son connection of the book. I loved the way he wrote about his mom. I loved the connecting through books. I loved the gentleness of the book. I can’t remember the last time I slowly savored a book as much as I did this one. If you’re into books like this, I recommend this one. I loved the whole thing. Today is about David’s first ever basketball game. I had to blur the other boys’ faces just to be sure. I also have a little photo of Nathaniel with all the other siblings.
some days are simple. there we go. That’s day ten. See you tomorrow. Today is about another yearly tradition: Breakfast with Santa.
I love the gold on this page.
