I know we are all about photos, but few days ago I found here some videos from my dad and my nephews and, even HATING as I appear on videos, I started thinking that videos are important to us to save memories too...

Today I found this CUTE video. Just 1 second per day... And you start loving this kid.

The cutest video on the world, for sure! And, if one day God gives me the chance to be a Mom, I'll work on something like that... :õ)

Hope you have fun watching this... I know I'm here, all on tears...

That's pretty awesome! How cool would that be to have for yourself as a parent and the child!?

exactly!!! I cannot stop watching this!

Wow, that's amazing! Love the mix of video clips they used.

Wonder if they'll keep it up if they have a second kid . . . I'm a little scarred from the 1 billion photos my parents took of my sister and none of me.

This is amazing - totally wish I would have done something like this!! Guess its not too late to start even though they are all older now.

It's amazing! And no I have another big idea to carry out when I finally get my baby. Thank you for sharing!

Dawn, I know I would! That's SO creative and unique!!

And I was talking with hubby these days about old photos.. Today is SO much easier to take photos, right?? I know because I have more photos from my nephews than my parents have from me and my brother and sister together. LOL

And Kelly, agreed! It's not to late! Imagine videos like that from your family. Each day one doing something... how fun would be to watch?!?!

I already take a picture everyday and have for three years. And my DSLR has really good video. I've actually been wanting to learn how to take better video with it, but I think you have to use manuel focus. So- other than a couple of hours putting it all together- I think it would be a fairly easy project.

I totally need another hobby. lol.

I'm inspired.

Oh. my. word... that has me in a total ball of tears... how fast time goes and then they are grown... and is also makes me sadden that I will never get to witness this again...

thanks for sharing... I always forget to take video when I'm so trained on getting the photos...

Valgal · #12 07-12-2013, 03:17 PM

I have spent all afternoon researching video stuff! lol. And I just downloaded the trial version of Final Cut Pro. You're such a bad influence. Haha.

So precious!!!

So neat!!!!

There is this site iMom.com that sends out a new question/discussion for pillow talk in email everyday. I try to do as many as I can. I would ask the question to all kids and video tape them. Most of my videos are 4-5 minutes (between 3 of them) but some can last 10-15 minutes if the kids get into some real/lengthy conversations. My kids will be 20, 16 and 14 in fall. They're never too old to be video taped and to preserve memories. Some days, I come up with my own questions, but the site inspires to get you into the mode of conversation with kids.

ETA: Here's the link to samples of their previous prompts:
