everyday life

For most of us, when looking back through an old photo album, life seems to skip from highpoint to highpoint--vacations and trophies and birthdays and parties and holidays without much anything in between. But that's certainly not how life feels, huh? :-)

The everyday stuff is rarely photographed--or at least that used to be true... before the cell phone camera and blogging and twitter put a more of a microscopic focus on sharing mundane details. I think part of the new focus on these moments of "in between time" is that they do capture the flavor of existence better than the highpoints-only review people used to create when photography was more difficult and expensive. This phenomenon is particularly relevant for children, who tend to shine brightest when you are just hangin' out.

  1. This movie is such a celebration of the in-between moments of life; it lets us all know the flavor of this little life is very happy. I can not quit smilling. Thank you.

  3. Due to alphabetical order, "Roe's World" is the last blog on the list in my RSS reader, and I always look forward to finishing all my other reading when I see that there is an update to this one. It's always like dessert!
