I was crawling into bed early last night. It had been a long day, and I was really quite exhausted. 

My phone buzzed, alerting me to a text. It was my mom. 

I actually laughed out loud. And continued to for a while. Mom started a crazy chain of texts between me, her and my sisters. It was one I knew I had to share. 

Unless you have been living under a rock or have been off the grid for the past few weeks, you no doubt have heard of the controversy surrounding the National Anthem. And there is little doubt you have an opinion about it. And I am willing to bet, most opinions are strongly leaning one way or the other. 

I have been wrestling with my opinion. I think I have come to a conclusion. 

Colin Kaepernick has taken a knee the past two weeks to stand up for social injustices. Handfuls of players across the league (NFL) and other sports are following suit. 

This move sparked mega outrage and lots of media coverage. So I suppose it has been successful. 

So, Rea and I have decided to do the 365 photo challenge. She got a camera last year for her birthday, and we share a nerdy love of scrapbooking. What better way to mother/daughter bond than snap pics and scrapbook? Woo Hoo!
