Our May in photographs. Seems so long ago. Looking back to these thirty one days brings such a smile on my face. I talk all the time about making the insignificant mundane activities of the day seem more significant by capturing them in a photograph.  By doing this, we are making them more important than they may seem at the time. When we look back at these little insignificant events, we realize how truly blessed our small days are.

Little baby toes in the grass.  It may not be a big deal today. But in five years, when those little baby toes are big boy feet, we can look back and remember.

A cool dude looking through the glass at the swimming polar bear. So what if we’ve been to the zoo countless times since we’ve had kids. This time is recorded in history–and it will always have happened, because it will forever be a moment snapped in time. The Day We Went to the Zoo and My Mom Took a Picture of Me Looking at the Polar Bear.

A hopeful boy, in his first year of baseball–trying his hardest, looking adorable in his uniform, and not really knowing what he’s doing. There will only ever be one first year of baseball, and in twenty years, I will be so happy that I have documented it in a few special pictures.

Each day is holy. Each moment that we spend taking the time to photograph something of seemingly little importance in the here and now will be so very important in the later.

Don’t miss your chance to take one photograph today. Make today important. Capture a piece of it to take with you along the way.
