I was scrolling through my camera roll tonight and feeling that bittersweet ache because my "baby" is suddenly starting school in the fall. Here I am searching for the best photo albums online to turn these thousands of scattered digital moments into a real heirloom they can flip through on the sofa any time they want.

Wanted to consider those basic grocery store books but I heard the binding will start cracking within a year and the pages just felt like magazine paper. Need something that feels more like a "forever" book with thick pages and a cover that can actually handle being handled through the years.

I'll go first, I was on a bus about a year ago and an older man got on who clearly wasn't sure where to get off, he kept leaning toward the window and looking uncertain. A teenage boy sitting nearby, headphones in, noticed, took out one earbud and just said quietly "where are you trying to get to?" Helped him figure out the stop, told him he'd let him know when they were close, then actually tapped him on the shoulder when the stop came.

Got off himself two stops later. Nobody around them made a thing of it. It lasted maybe four minutes total. I think people are doing kind things all the time and nobody's keeping track and they should be. I've always seen people counting mistakes but how about kindness?
