Something She Said

Instead of a 365 photo project this year I decided to keep a photo journal for the family.  Wait, is that a photo 365 project?  I suppose it is...  Okay, great!  So, I decided to do another 365 project this year.  Twila has been saying some really amazing things lately and I thought a journal would force me to write things down so as not to forget them later.  I have been adding these conversation to my Instagram account because it's so easy but I really want to pay more attention to the images and the moment than IG allows.

I have found some great layouts over the last few years from Paislee Press.  I like her minimal style and her layouts are always very inspiring.  Her blog and photographs are beautiful too.  If you like to journal with images and don't know of her yet you should check out her blog/shop! 

For those of you with eyes like mine, here is the text from above:

T:  Mama, can I play Halloween?  Look, I have everything I need."  I look inside her bag and there is a kitty mask, another mask, a wig, and a large magnifier.

Me:  Sure! What's the magnifying glass for?

T:  In case there are any bugs we can look at.

Me:  Ohhh.  That makes good sense.  Wanna look at some bugs right now?

T:  Okay.  But then my babies and me are going to play Halloween.

The "Babies" she refers to are the two pillows she's holding {both named Emma}.  They are both seen {in the photo above} "in costume".  But one day we plan on making them actual masks, real costumes.  We then had a long discussion about where exactly the mask would go; where their eyes are, etc.  And although it doesn't make much sense to me, Twila is their Mama and she says that the mask goes over Emma's mouth.  "It's OK." She tells me when I suppose she sees some concern in my eyes.
