A first grader and a fourth grader walked out of our door this morning and we took the same picture we take every year. I kept looking at the picture and re-taking it. Something just didn’t seem right about it. The angle, the zoom, the lighting. I finally realized it wasn’t my camera. The girls are changing as if before our eyes. Suddenly so big, so grown up that the pictures seem out of focus to me.

Another day, another year.

And off they go…
