One of my newest hobbies and fascinations has become collecting and restoring old family photographs. I'm not sure exactly what I will do with my collection, but I have loved finding and studying them. I have such a beautiful family! These are some of the people that I have loved most in this world - and yet there is so much of their lives that I have not known! I did not even recognize my own family is some of these pictures! It is amazing how a simple photograph, from years ago, can make you feel so much closer to someone you already love so much.
