. . . if there had been somebody there to take pictures of us every minute of our lives.
No, but seriously. Several months ago, before the baby was born, we had a photographer at our house for three days, documenting What It’s Like to Live In a Family of Twelve.

Here is just one photo, one of my favorites out of the nearly thirty that made it into the online story:
It’s such an honest but positive story. I have so much to say about the experience of having our family life documented! But things keep turning up. In the meantime, check out the story and the rest of the pictures here, and find more wonderful photography by the very gifted Matthew Lomanno at his website. Especially take a look at the documentary collections.
And today we celebrate...
