The End

This is my attempt at creating a little movie.  I have a jillion little snippets of video taken over the past couple of years from the little flip and iPhone and after seeing a video created by my girl Jami (brilliant) I was inspired. And this is my attempt.

I must admit I have watched it countless times and still choke up a bit each time. Not because of the perfect filming or the flawless editing (obviously) but because of the unintended direction that the project took.  I wanted to use some of the fun clips I had of the boys outside playing and learning to ride their bikes.. Then I also had the graduation ceremony from preschool... And of course their first day of kindergarten and what they were most anxious about.

After I put it all together and the pieces fell into place I realized it was the story of an ending. The end of our 6 years together, home, playing, carefree, schedule-free, getting to know each other, growing, nurturing, and preparing them to venture out into the world without me... I think this video captures those final months beautifully.
