Stories about those days.

The stories that people have about Jamie’s photos are a source of amazement. Β Some are of the “that’s me and we were doing this” type of stories from Jamie’s friends. Some are the “I never met Jamie but this was taken on my birthday and it means a lot to me. And some are just stunningly moving one of a kind stories.

    πŸ™‚ This is the day my daughter was born. We had been traveling on the road for over a year, I was pregnant the entire time. In the last few months of my pregnancy we were in the South, and for awhile we stayed in Decatur and Atlanta. By the time Jan. 8 came around, though, we were in Houston. I loved my time in Georgia, and I actually haven’t been back since that time. This is a really good photo for that day, and that time. Thanks for posting these.

    My family was in Florida on this day. I love that the next picture (February 15th) shows the crazy amounts of snow the north was getting while we were gone.

    *note: this same story is on the next day, bc im an idiot and put it on the wrong day HAHAHA
    *anyway, here’s the story:

    That night, a little girl named Hannah with dark eyes and dark hair was born to Romeo and Lydia Bondoc in Maryland. Her family always lived well and loves her well. She is a college student who goes to Old Dominion University as a comm major, but she still aspires to be an actress and has been ever since she learned how to speak in an british accent in 5th grade after watching the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. She has a boyfriend she’s been dating since the summer after she graduated high school.

    Early morning on this day my family went on a trip all over Mexico City to make my mom walk, she was pregnant with me. She was supposed to give birth soon but I was taking my time in the womb so the doctor kept sending her home.
    Later in the day my mom stayed home, to rest. That is when the birthing pains began. I was born in an old home in the center of the City of Mexico with only my mother to catch me as I came to this world. Thank you.

    This was the day i was born. I don’t know why but it made me cry very hard to look at the picture. I’ve been having a lot of thoughts about how I’ve ruined my life, and i think it upsets me to see a different time. A time when things didn’t seem as complicated.

    Has no idea that has been a mural for over 35 year. Someone has made a lot of money allowing a wall to be painted.

    This is the day I was born. Sometimes I get worried I spend too much time thinking about the past, so initially I didn’t enjoy that the focus was on the rearview mirror in this photo, but then I realized he was only focused on the rearview mirror for the photo and that his eyes would soon be on the road ahead. He used the rearview mirror to have a special little moment, and because of that we learn he is towing something with him which adds to the richness of the story this photo tells, and that makes me think that maybe I shouldn’t feel so guilty about thinking about the past if I get something out of it and if it adds to the richness of my own story.
