photo friday: fragments

All photos are fragments. Life spreads past the edge of every shot—the sky, the ground, the road turning out of the frame. What image could contain the whole? Even Google Maps has blank spots, streets and addresses unplumbed. We photograph things to capture these fragments—places, events, stages, endless trips to the park—and keep them in a semi-permanence?

It has been yet another incredibly busy week here. Our little Waldorf school, The Wooden Button, held its first day of class Wednesday. It went off without a hitch, you wouldn't imagine the incredible amount of work that preceded the opening. Yesterday the students, including my son, brought vegetables from home and made soup together. And then, my daughter has also started attending preschool, only for two hours twice a week, but she is enthusiastic about it. For myself, I am looking forward to the weekend—it'll be the first since we got back from the Jersey shore where I can take a deep breath and relax a little. 

Next week's photo Friday theme: symmetry.
