I loved this story of Nytimes (gift link) about encouraging children to take photos on trips. They are often attracted to such sweet things. When my cousin was little, his mother gave him a camera to play, and took a photo on a wall that was too short to see. That way, when the photo was developed, I discovered what was on the other side. I always thought it was adorable …
And here there are two photos that Anton took, when we visited friends years ago in Vermont. See you so big through your eyes!
What do you eat for breakfast? Jillian Barreca, a recipe developer based in Toronto, publishes breakfast ideas on Instagram. Your toasts are easy and delicious: Caramelized bananas with peanut butter? yes please! – And I am excited to try something this week with the boys.
Recently we get into the priorities of the game, which we now play with anyone who stops. The rules are simple: a person draws five cards, and then everyone else has to guess how the person would classify them (for example, do they like baths more or less than breakfast in bed?) You end up entering fun conversations and learning things about the people around you.
I loved this poem by Megan Fernandes (through Alyssa Chua).
