Ollie absolutely LOVES pictures. I got some of our recent photos from Virginia Beach printed and he’s been carrying them around for days. I looked through some cabinets and found a little photo album for him and put the recent pictures in it. He was so happy with it, I looked around and found him about 50 more photos ranging back to before Emmett was born and put them in the book for him. He’s curled up in a chair telling Emmett all about the pictures now. Its really cool. I’m teaching him to have memories. There are pictures in there from his two trips to Arkansas to see family. Now he’ll get to remember people he doesn’t get to see very often, like my grandparents. It almost bring tears to my eyes to listen to him describe his relatives and the things we’ve taken him to do. His favorite one to describe is a sequence of 4 photos I took of him when he was 7 months old as he was discovering tulips.
