An old friend from university sent ‘You Won’t Remember This Either’ which has a great quote in it:

What continues to amaze me about parenting is how it simultaneously expands and condenses time. The days can seem long, but the months fly by.

That really captures it for me. I feel like a goldfish sometimes. So I take video and photos in the hope that they will keep triggering the memories for me one day.

I went to the first video he did, ‘You Won’t Remember This’ and my wife spelled it out for me – that phase of our life is over.

There is something about the omnivorous now in parenting, and the constantly shifting challenges and demands of the moment, that creates a kind of rolling amnesia for everything yesterday.

I sure hope I got enough video of it cause I’m not much of an animator.
