Bits of our evening as the sky outside turned a lovely shade of purpley blue and yet my camera wouldn't focus on the trees. I got really frustrated with it. It was Charlotte's bath night--they take turns. Little S was mad because he wanted to take a bath too so he crashed cars on the floor making lots of commotion and threatened to put his car in the bath. All the while I made papillotes of vegetables and cut up chicken for grilling in a honey-soy-ginger sauce. It wasn't anything special but it was one of those evenings where the camera was on the table and I kept picking it up.
I'm glad I do this sometimes. It's important to take pictures of nothing special.

I completely agree - unimportant is especially nice sometimes.
You are so right. My favorite pictures from when I was young are the ones that show our regular day-to-day activities and those bring back the best memories. I try to remind myself of that when I get in the rut of only taking special occasion pictures.
