Technical Difficulties

I have written several blog posts.  I just haven't posted them because I was unable to attach photos.  Photos, to me, say more than any words.  Well, at least more than many of the words that I string together.

I love how photos capture a moment a time, a brief expression on someone's face.  Time goes by so quickly, more quickly each and every day.  So, to be able to go back and look at a photo, to see that the moment that I remember really did happen, means a lot to me.  Because memories fade.  I wish they didn't, but they do.  And there are so many things I don't want to forget.

I don't want to forget the many amazing expressions on my boys' faces, the innocent and optimistic nature of Jaeger, and the sassy and sometimes moody expressions of Izzy.

Photos allow a brief bit of time travel.  Videos allow better time travel, and I love video, too.

And it's not just about being able to confirm that a moment really did happen, but also to see things that you didn't see the first time around, the way someone looked at you, or you at them.

I am, admittedly, obsessed with recording life.  Because I don't want to forget it, and I want to be able to go back an relive moments.  As a result, my computer (which allegedly has tons of memory) is so full of photos and videos that it is super slow and almost impossible to attach photos.  Hence, the lack of blog posts, which is a shame because these posts record thoughts and descriptions of life.

Anyway, that is my explanation for not posting much this year...
