After a couple of years, I’m sure there will be a time I’ll look back at photos I’ve taken or projects that I’ve worked on where I can see how far I’ve come…and how I’ve improved.
…Sure there have been times I’ve thought, “I am way better than that NOW!”. It’s good to see improvement in my work.
But I don’t feel this way when I look back on the birthstory of my nephew. Maybe it’s because he IS my nephew, maybe it’s because I poured my heart and soul into compiling memories for my Brother and Sister-in-Law the way I would want to have for myself if I were in the same situation.
That’s how I look at each ‘photo assignment’ and I think this one really captures that effort.
..And maybe it’s because I’m pregnant and hormonal but watching this continues to bring me to tears. 🙂
(Side note: If you pay close attention, there’s an image that shows the time Titus was born. Given that mom and dad were unsure if they wanted to name him Titus or Levi, they decided that if he were to be born on an even minute, his name would have been Levi. Since it was an odd minute, they chose Titus. Pretty cool, huh?)
If you are reading this on Facebook and can’t view the video, go to my official photo blog for the full experience.
This is one of the most moving slideshows I've seen! Even though I do not know those pictured, I was still brought to tears. You've captured each moment…perfectly!
