My kingdom for those curls.

"Sometimes you will never know the true value of a moment until it becomes a memory."

I've been looking back on baby photos and hearing this acknowledgement from the sage Doctor Seuss rebounding around my head.

As much as I try to be in the moment, and as much as I am in the moment, the moment passes. All too quickly. And its value accrues.

Is it ever really possible to know the true value of the present? 

I am evermore committed to memory-making. 
 
So many out-takes that are above being just out-takes this week from a lovely afternoon in the garden, playing in piles of freshly cut grass.

Joining in with Jodi.
