While looking through old family photo albums I began to realize that there are certain moments that it seems that everybody has wanted to catch. Things like the first day a baby has come home from the hospital, first time staying away from home, first prom, etc. I was able to catch a consistency throughout different people’s photo albums. I have decided to only use photographs that are of importance like this.
There are always firsts going on around us. Some major like first steps, and some not as major, but still momentous like starting a new job. I started thinking about all of the smaller milestones that occur in life, that seem to go unnoticed. We all know what a big deal a major life milestone can be. Some milestones are met with great fanfare and celebration, while others come and go quietly. Either way, keeping track of them is a large part of what family members seem to do.
“There are always firsts going on around us, even as adults. And it’s nice to be able to stop and celebrate them. Milestones are not limited to just childhood either. Many milestones occur in the lives of adults –a trip you saved for, the first meal you cooked for a holiday party, etc.”
