photographs

Recently I friend-requested my Grandpa on Facebook. 
My grandpa...is on face book. I started to look through his pictures and came upon the cutest one of his siblings, cousins & him. He is the bottom right little boy. so sweet. Look at the little girl next to him, how adorable?
I started thinking about how MANY pictures my children and grandchildren will have to look at of me, one day. Then I realized the last time I actually printed out a picture. years. I now have 1,064 pictures on the internet, HA.
I try & document a lot in my journal & occasionally on here but there is so much more I could be doing. I want to start dedicating more time to taking real pictures. Real life, so one day I can lay them all out on the floor and talk about each, NOT scroll through and click click click on my laptop. I need to be aware of my surroundings & although some memories can't be as beautiful on a sheet of paper, it is still worth it to have it printed. If somehow face book, the internet, or my computer crashed....the last 6 years of my life would basically be erased.

Thank you Grandpa. I love you

  1. I feel the same way. I am horrible at printing pics out. Did you know you can print out blogs? There are several different sites that do it and put all your entries in a beautiful binded book. I keep saying I am going to do that...and I will, one day! :)
