Me and my sister. My son and his.

I've been on a project to crop out hundreds of photos from scans. These are from the collection of my mum. I tend to scan 2 or 3 per page, save the whole project as a PDF for accession to my Family Tree spreadsheet as well as saving each scan page as a TIF. I then crop out each photo, which remains a TIF.

I found this quite an emotional project because I was going through photos that documents events through 5 generations of my family.

While going through the photos, I came across the one below. I'm holding my sister and our auntie Veronique is sitting with us. Along this I've put a photo of my son, Noah, who is holding his day old sister. The photo of them was taken on 12 September, 2018.

I just liked that while these events capture an event that was unique, but these events happen during each generation. Each time this happens it is extremely special to the people involved, and yet is common throughout many families.
