I love photos. If you have read my blog for any length of time, then you know how I love to include lots of photos in my blog posts. Photos help to tell a rich story. They draw the reader into the story that I am telling and let people have a small peek into my life to see the things that I care about.
One thing that I have noticed is that no two people can go the same event and take the exact same photo. We are all individuals who see the world so differently and photos help to express a point of view that is truly unique.
The photo above was taken when my son and I went to see Disney On Ice last year in the Palace of Auburn Hills. He was 10 years old at the time. I realized as we sat enjoying the show that he is getting to the age where he won't want to go with me to "kiddie" events like this much longer. This photo is a way for me to hold on to that precious age between him being a kid and growing up.
