May Take Twelve Layout

And here it is:

This is my first Take Twelve one-pager. I was a little worried at how small the photos were, but I really like the end result.

 While my goal for this month was to capture some of the details of a Deutsch family Shabbos, my favorite story recorded from this month is in the last little photo on the bottom of the page: The book I was reading (Wonderstruck), was dedicated to Maurice Sendak who died last week. I thought a lot about his life and his death last week, and including a bit about it here, makes me think about how someday, years from now, my children and/or grandchildren can look at this page and know the work of this children's author and illustrator was important to me. And also, that I had an awesome, bright pink manicure.
