     Maybe I could try harder. It's close to the end of the year and of course I'm feeling the need to make a list of all the things I want to change about myself. Resolutions. Do they ever work? Could I stick to them this time around? 

     Marci took these photos of the girls. She is an amazing photographer with the innate ability to capture those precious moments that we all take for granted. I'm so jealous of these photos. I should be doing more with a camera. I should be trying harder. 

     I give myself so many projects. Too many perhaps. I have an embarrassing amount of started and unfilled journals. I have a dauntingly expansive folder of images that I want to edit. I have so many books that I want to make... so many. 

     So this new year that's about to start, this millennia of MMXVIII, maybe my resolutions won't be forgotten by the second week. Here's to hope.
