i discovered a couple cool quotes today by none other than...
bob dylan.

take care of your memories. for you cannot relive them.

and it just so happens that one of my greatest memories growing up was listening to my dad play his bob dylan and bob seger records. i used to wake up every morning to my dad blasting his music (and yes, it was always bob dylan or bob seger). and my sister and i were constantly trying to memorize the words to the songs and dance to the music all the time. i remember it like it was yesterday but i know that i'm totally showing my age here. ;-)

all i can do is be me, whoever that is.

this is something that i so believe in...being true to me. i want to do this in my photography. i want my blog to be true to me. i want to do this in life...just be me!

now, on to my photos. the photos were from today...him sleeping on the couch. my poor ryder is still sick. he threw up twice this morning, making this day number four. nothing else, just throwing up. i hate when my kids are sick. i feel so helpless. a parent can't help but get worked up about his/her child being sick. lucky for me, the kids' pediatrician is one of our best friends...someone i talk to almost daily. so, when talking to his wife today, i just happened to mention ryder still being sick. later, i got a call from the pediatrician to check on ryder and he told me that this virus seems to be a five-day deal. yikes. so i'm hopeful for the weekend and ryder's recovering from this darn virus and i'm hopeful that it doesn't get to anyone else in the family.
