Day 23

I know these posts lately have been kind of short lately, but it's just because I'm really busy! But these gratitude posts are mainly for me anyway, so oh well!

Today I am grateful for pictures/videos/blogs/journals. I have the worst memory in the WORLD but it's amazing how looking at a picture will suddenly bring back a flood of detail and memory of that day. I was looking through wedding pictures the other day and it just made me cry. Looking at the pictures just made me feel like I was back to that perfect day. Or reading through journal entries back in fourth grade and feeling like I'm 10 years old again, even though before reading my journal I completely forgot about what happened. I just love all these ways to SAVE my memories, because my brain isn't really good at it :)

I really hope my future kids appreciate all the pictures I take, because I know I would be willing to pay ANYTHING to see pictures of my parents dating, their wedding (I've only seen one picture), or even them as newlyweds. I also would pay millions to see love notes they wrote to each other or pictures of when they first got engaged. These are the things that are PRICELESS, and I really need to be better at recording these memories for myself and my future posterity! :)

Here's a few pictures of some of my most favorite MEMORIES! So glad I got them on camera!
