Leaf Pile

My oldest burst into the house one evening and called, “Mom! We have a picture opportunity for you! Hurry, before the sun sets!” 👀 The light was right and he knew it, and they were doing an activity they wanted to remember—dropping from the monkey bars into a pile of leaves. I love that they want to coordinate their interests with mine. Their appreciation for my camera started when we moved from state to state and I promised them a way to remember their special places. Thankfully the cooperation stuck. Sometimes it means I take pictures of weird stuff that meets their suggestions… 😅 but most of the time I get to just capture their childhood—my own window into favorite moments that fly by too fast and can never be recovered. Except like this. 🙏🏻 #am_twoboys
