i've wanted to do something like this for awhile. i don't know why i haven't until now - maybe because she would never voluntarily sit this still for any length of time - but today it happened. and i quickly soaked up all of my favorite little things about her. sometimes when she wakes up in the morning i swear she's bigger and her vocabulary is growing exponentially and sometimes she knows things that i don't know (seriously). my baby is turning into a little girl and sometimes i feel, a little woman. i want to remember, so vividly, how her eyelashes lay and her funky little feet and her wispy blonde hair and the tiny little pores on her skin. my favorite freckle, her perfect little lips, and the beautiful shade of green that her eyes seem to have settled into in the past few months. i love photographs (and macro lenses) for being able to bring you so close to those memories. i've been trying to find something that i want to blog "regularly" - an installment of some sort. i think i figured it out today. and while they may not always be just of zoe, i want to remember, closely, some special pieces of life.

[and this, forty seconds later, is what i mean by "little woman."]do you like my pieces idea? anyone care to join? :) i'd love to see your favorite pieces, too.
