A few days ago, ljc blog posted about a man who, for almost 30 years starting with his marriage to his wife, has taken a photo of each family member once a year, to track the small changes as each grows and ages. I'm pretty sure this is the man ljc is talking about. Ljc has started a similar page for her family. It's such a great idea - in my family, there were tons of pictures of my sister and me as young kids, but almost none after age 10 - a combination of pre-teen camera shyness and our diminishing cuteness, I'm sure. Anyway, someday when I think it's time to start the clock, I think I'd like to do this, too.
Posted by jess at January 28, 2005 6:13 PMThanks for sharing that link. I was very moved by it. It's so weird now that my kids are 22 and 24, and I'm very nostalgic for their baby-hoods. I can hardly remember most of it. I was especially intrigued by how haggard and exhausted the mother looks during they years she had alot of adolescents around. They're a very beautiful famiy despite the black/white/mugshot quality of the photos.
