This morning I was looking over our Project Life album that I have completed so far this year and I started laughing when I came across our anniversary card from this year. Landen had written
"I think this will be our best year yet".
It sure has started out that way!
I've been debating for quite some time whether or not to participate in Ali Edwards Week in the Life project this year.
What could I possibly have to document for an entire week this year?
Living out of boxes at Landen's parents?
A new home (fingers crossed on that one) that is currently being built?
Abbey?
Lazy summer days?
And then it hit me, these are the types of photos that are what A Week in the Life is all about! Documenting the everyday. Both the significant things and the insignificant things.
I am sure that one day, when we are nice and settled into our new home and we are back into a regular routine, we are going to look back at these crazy hectic days and smile.
"Remember when we spent two months living in Mom and Dad's attic?"
"Remember that summer before you started teaching when you spent hours a day working on lesson plans?"
"Remember how Abbey loved having all that land to play on?"
"Remember all the anticipation of starting a ministry together and finding our place in the center of God's will?"
"Remember...?"
So, heck yes I will be doing A Week in the Life this year.
I encourage you guys to consider doing it too. Documenting your life, all day long, for one week.
It's possible.
And I'm gonna do it.
