How Do I Love You? Let me count the days.
[an excerpt from “How Do I Love You? Let me count the days.”]
Emily Lapish
Develop a wordless sign of love that all your family members can use with each other (for example, making the ‘I love you’ sign with your hands, or even something more obscure that only your family members understand) and implement it at unexpected times during the day.
Idea #21:
choose a sign or gesture to share with each individual person in your family, make it one that just you and that person share, like your own secret handshake just between the two of you

By day, I photograph families. By night, I build forts the size of elephants with my family. I live in a yellow house. I believe real life is the best getaway ever.
