Milestones

My daughter Cadence attended her first school dance on Friday, and I got to be her lucky date. This is an important milestone to me because I believe strongly in the phrase "struggle all day; dance all night," and seeing her on the dancefloor with her friends made my heart swell with pride and joy.

As I thought about our One Word for the month of December--savor--I realized that Cadence has been experiencing some significant milestones this year, and this thought made me want to savor each one of those. I believe that capturing moments like the one above in the photo is one way I can savor these important milestones of hers.

Share with us today images of milestones that you have savored--whether in your own life or in your children's lives or anyone elses's.

My son is old enough to really appreciate nature now. So lovely to savor what I'm experiencing and know he's soaking it in too.

What put the "whole population of Paris in commotion," as Jehan de Troyes expresses it, on the sixth of January, was the double solemnity, united from time immemorial, of the Epiphany and the Feast of Fools.http://www.digbbc.com
