Thought.
by Ashley Weeks Cart
This evening I had grand plans of slogging through my To Do list and accomplishing many a productive task while James was out for the night and Addison slumbered.
In working on one project, however, I came across a video clip I had captured of Sunny about a month ago when I was borrowing the epic Nikon D90. I had completely forgotten about that simple moment of watching her just be in the world.
Naturally, instead of plowing forward with my tasks, I dropped everything to watch that moment again and again and then pair it with the perfect music.
Moments like these don’t demand editing. Just an opportunity to be seen.
The song is called “Our Last Days as Children.”
It must be the snow falls, and the dark that envelopes us at such an early hour, but the melancholy of the song, its title, and the realization that moments like these will one day be mere memories has occupied my thoughts for an entire evening. And I wouldn’t have it any other way.
