My favourite photo this week is an appalling shot really, but it is here not for its artistic merit, but for what it says to me. After Daddy does the bath Mummy comes up to read a bedtime story. However on this particular evening she was busy getting some or other adult-type dish into the oven. Curry, no doubt, or something else I would refuse to eat.
She yelled up to ask if I would listen to the Bug read his schoolbook while we waited. She came up 10 minutes later to find us snuggled together in my den.
“It’s ok Mummy,” I told her. “He read to me, then I read Zog to him. We’re ready for bed now…”
A rare moment of sibling harmony… What better reason to publish a technically inferior image?
Lovely to see them reading together isn’t it? Sibling moments like this can be very rare! lol
Aw that is so sweet! Can’t wait for my babies to be old enough for moments like this.
That is so sweet! I hope W is equally kind to numero dos in the future LOL!
What a nice blog. Nice pic too.
What a great moment x
Altogether now – Ahhhhh !
Sarcastic mare… 😉

I love the style of your blog from your daughter’s viewpoint, very interesting! I have a baby girl so I’ll be reading your blog regularly.

Exactly!
ohh I long for the day H can read to herself in bed! Lovely pic!
It’s a double-edged sword – I miss her wanting me…
Gorgeous. At the moment my two just try to bop each other over the head with their books, but there’s still time yet!
Well, we do a lot of that too, believe me!
Oh that has just melted my heart. If only I could report the same!
Trust me, it’s very rare. Back to normal the next day 🙂
How lovely! A picture with a story like that is the best picture out there!

A melt your heart moment
Ah, lovely! Hope my two have lots of moments like this when they get bigger.
I completely agree with you. Yes it’s nice to show off the great shots, but likewise project 365 is about capturing the little moments that make our families function the way they do.
