A while back I posted my video of Ruby Every Day, in which I took a picture of my daughter every day for the first year or her life. The project was a moderate success: successful in that I actually finished something that I started, and moderate in that it was kind of long and boring. But that has never stopped me before!
In my ongoing quest to make sure that my son suffers from as little “second-child syndrome” as possible, I have created a similar video for Edward so that he will not feel left out when it comes time to whip out embarrassing baby videos later in life. There’s not much to say about making this video that I didn’t already say about the first video other than this: there are way more songs with Ruby in them than Edward. Also, the songs that I did find were not always that great. How can I put this bluntly? Guys tend to write songs about girls they love, and girls tend to write songs about guys they hate. At least this was my experience in searching for songs online. The only exception to this rule was, sadly, if they were about Twilight vampires, but I refuse to include any of that claptrap in my video.
So here it is, a labor or love, and as before, feel free to watch it or not (it is pretty long…), but having done it, I had to put it out there. Tune in tomorrow for a more exciting post on how we got my cat out of the barn.
