Perhaps for a lot of folks here on steemit, this won't sound all that crazy... I've taken a break from it lately, really been slacking on it more than anything else actually.

Unconditional love is a funny thing, I didn't really know how strong it can be until we had a baby. What an insane human bond the birth of our little homie created for the three of us. I'm not going to try and explain it because it's kind of personal and I'm sure each bond created between beings could be as uniquely different as our own fingerprints.

But I will tell you this,

Every single moment spent with this little person matters more than anything else in the word. I may talk a whole lot about building a homestead and my dreams to create an artist haven that welcomes travelers of all walks of life, while we live a mindful life with anarchist tendencies, but my closest family is what comes first every time.

That's nothing crazy... so what am I talking about?

That's just it, I think this love I feel is driving me to spend some time (a lot of time really) documenting all the art our son has and will create until I can't track it down anymore. Since he started playing with a pen, marker, chalk or anything that can male a mark on paper, I have been taking photos of it all.

I've collected almost a thousand drawings and paintings so far, and there are probably a couple hundred piled up because I've been slacking on it.... time to get back to it. Again, I guess I'm using steemit as my check list kind of thing or my reminder calendar. It does help to write things down!

This one is a bus, can you tell? At the time we had been looking at buses to convert into a live-in vehicle....amazing!

And this one's the first face he's ever drawn.

Some of these drawings come with whole entire stories with sounds as they were drawn... It's just so cool to get a gimps into his head this way. So what I'd like to do takes a little work but I think it will be well worth it.

When I turned twenty something, I received a notebook from my mother. It was filled with letters my mom had written to me confessing her joy and pride in me watching me grow up. She was so happy to have seen what I had become... Did I turn out ok (yeah, I think I'm ok), because she let me be who I wanted to be? She never tried to push any of her dreams on me, and I love her for that very much! I want to never forget that the way I was raised and I want my son to have his freedom of thought, like I did.

On that note, as crazy as it may sound, I will try to collect as much of my son's art as I can (you know, until he's making art in places I don't know about)!

With all that, I want to make a time laps video of all the drawings I'm collecting for that same sort of gift one day. Wouldn't it be great to be able to see a video that can show the evolution of your own art since you first picked up something to draw with?

Yeah, you guessed it.... one of the very first drawings at around 17 months old!

Has anyone have any idea what kind of program or app I could use to make such "time laps" video? I've been formating every photo to the same aspect ration by cropping them a little, would it be possible to import a bunch of images into such program at once?

Thank You
