December 7

Whatever else happens today, this is a moment I want to remember. Early morning (well, not super early but first thing) in the dark and quiet kitchen, Clara wanted to me to read to her. I had to put together a quiche for a brunch, so she settled for sitting on the counter and reading to her baby, also known as Mr. Bear.

I often wait until the last hour to post my DPP picture. These December days are full of events and photo opportunities, and most of the time I think surely there will be a “better” picture just around the corner. Granted, sometimes there is. But just as often (or almost as often maybe), the money shot is a moment that is perfectly ordinary.
