Isn't that the greatest about photographs...watching you children grow and change from year to year (and your photography skills grow & change) If I decided to do a post like this I would be in deep trouble too...My photos are scattered from here and yon and I would definitely be sitting in the corner crying. Good for you for gathering and putting them together so we could all enjoy the birthday pancake tradition!! Love it!!

And, ahhh the candlelight ...it's funny to how the traditions don't have to be some grand thing, just something like you said that is looked forward to with anticipation. We have a birthday tradition too, but I'm not sure if I might be sharing that one in my next post so mums the word on that for now....I do see peanut butter on those pancakes, my kinda guy!! ; ) xoKim Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16765296400379609580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-45410084374027730432012-11-14T08:36:12.360-08:002012-11-14T08:36:12.360-08:00I loved reading you say that passing traditions on...I loved reading you say that passing traditions on to your little ones, and some day their families, is a responsibility and privilege that you take seriously. I feel the exact same way! I think it's so important, and keeps us connected to our family members when they are no longer with us. The photos are beautiful, of course because he is so beautiful. And those last two - wow! Love the candle reflection and the Santa hat! Happy Birthday to Jack!

(I started to say "little boy" ...) His eyes are amazing ... the girls are in big trouble. Nah ... on second thought ... lucky is the young lady who snares this fellow.<br /><br />This is such a wonderful tradition and don't be a bit surprised to see your kids pass this along to your grandkids. But you know who'll have to make the pancakes! :-DDottihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00811399388989716265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-27561360789346743132012-11-14T06:49:57.324-08:002012-11-14T06:49:57.324-08:00Ohhh Leigh-- these brought images brought tears to...Ohhh Leigh-- these brought images brought tears to my eyes!!
