I had a sublime idea (if I do say so myself!) that I wanted to share with you all so that you can claim it as your own and reap all of the happy benefits. I call it: A picture a day for a month. I don’t know where the idea came from. I guess God.
If you’re unmarried or don’t have kids yet, archive this one for future reference.
For every day this month, my husband and I are emailing one picture of our 6-month-old Howard to his grandparents (and my sister). Sometimes it comes with a little caption; it always comes with the subject line: A picture a day for the month of June. They LOVE it. They might even text you if it gets to 8pm and you haven’t sent a picture yet. I seriously feel like the daughter-in-law of the year. And I’m really not. And it’s so easy (especially if you have a smart phone) and really fun!
Disclaimer: Be selective and wise in who you send the pictures to; not many people can tolerate a picture of your little one (as adorable as he or she may seem to you) every day for 30 days straight.
Just to whet your appetite, this was today’s entry:
Mom took me on a bike ride in our new bike trailer…
