Photo Wednesday 33

Oct03.Nantucket.G.reds

Today, an old one – this is a few weeks before Grace’s first birthday, at our friends’ house in Nantucket.  It was also our holiday card that year.  Pictures like this one catapult me straight into the tunnel of memory, where yesterday and today collapse together, and Grace’s babyhood seems like an instant and also a lifetime ago.

  1. Today is my Grace’s 15th birthday. I just posted a photo of her (and her twin brother) to my Facebook page. They were so tiny. And it feels like such a short short time ago. And, yes, a lifetime ago, too. The wallop of it blindsided me. You’d think I would know by now, but it gets me every time. Instant/lifetime, sorrow/joy, regret/gratitude: They all are two sides of a very thin, sharp coin.
