Jon-Jon

In case you couldn't tell, I got the Blogger on my phone to work and posted a blog that I wrote about 2 weeks ago. I didn' t think it would work, but it did! Hooray!!
Today, Jonathan turned the big 2-8!! Yikes!! So close to 30. When you're twenty, thirty seems WAY far in the future. His Mom sent him a package with his baby book and a binder full of pictures and awards and newspaper clippings. She also sent a couple if his football jerseys. It is so cute to see little Jon-Jon. He looks so much like the boys do. I love all the little birthday party pictures and school pictures.
It has made me think I really need to get in gear and put the boys books together. This digital age is hindering my craft. Used to, you would take 24 pictures, and choose very carefully what you wanted to take a pic of, develop it (hoping no one had eyes closed or red eye) and you would have your 2 prints of each picture in hand. It is so easy to pick from 24 pictures which one (if not all) you want to put in an album,etc. Problem now is, I have too many dadgum pictures and it is so overwhelming!! You can take 10 pictures of the same shot (and they all turn out pretty good). It's just frustrating going to the kiosk and picking from the 1,800 pictures in my phone that I've taken just in the last 7 months. Yes, that is just on my phone, I have many, many, many more on my actual digital camera. MY NAME IS SARAH, AND I HAVE A PROBLEM. Well, here's to hopeful thinking. I gotta just do it, before they have kids of their own (there I have a deadline).
That's all for now, until next time....

  1. I know what you mean about the film. I have two or three rolls of film in the house that have not been developed. There may be pictures of you, Phillip and Emily from Christmas 1995. You better save all those pictures on your phone to disk. I know this lady who accidently lost all the pictures in a terrible camera accident. She was and still is horribly devistated.
