His are littered with hard, blue wheeled boy things, mine with soft fluffy girl things. Bottom line though is that they are littered, or lets say, full. I also recognize the body language, both of the adults and the kids.

The pictures became a way to maintain an even keel in the midst of rapid change. We now have three boys and are awaiting a fourth. As they grow older the desire for assurance that everything will fall into place is undermined by the reality that no such certainty exists. There is no single destination, only perpetual movement&#8230;.<\/p><p style=\"color: #333333; margin: 1.2em 0px 1.2em 0px;\">My great- grandparents recorded milestone events in a family bible. Birth, baptism, marriage, and death created a simple and reliable narrative path describing our family history. These records are now kept in photo albums. Although the format has a less religious overtone, the element of ritual remains intact. Yearly school photographs, along with snapshots of birthdays, holidays, and vacations make up the bulk of these obviously selective, routine histories. They describe an optimistically simple and peaceful version of family life; one in which change is predictable and effortless. But what is left is a broad outline that ignores the complexity and richness of the life it is meant to recall. The reality, of course, is that it has never been as peaceful (or organized as efficiently) as the photographs might suggest. Chasing the Family Drift is a way of staying mindful of the time spent in the gaps.<\/p><p style=\"color: #333333; margin: 1.2em 0px 1.2em 0px;\">Todd Deutsch&nbsp;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-family: verdana;\"><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-size: small;\">Photographs from the project can be seen at&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><a style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #3366cc;\" href=\"http:\/\/todddeutsch.com\/content\/drift_index.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-family: verdana;\"><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-size: small;\">www.todddeutsch.com<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\";font-family: verdana;\"><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\";font-size: 12px;\">This is his second book after <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fpeditions.com\/libri\/schedatodd.html\"><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\";font-size: 12px;\">Gamers<\/span><\/a><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\";font-size: 12px;\">, a beautiful book about the subculture of LAN parties and the rituals surrounding them.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"color: #333333; font-style: italic;\"><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-family: verdana;\"><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-size: small;\">2009, 66 pp., 34 color illustrations, softbound, 7.25\u00d75.5\u2033<span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"color: #000000;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-style: normal;\">$25.00&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"color: #333333; font-family: verdana; font-size: 12px;\">You can order them <a href=\"http:\/\/todddeutsch.com\/blog\/?p=3\">here.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"color: #333333; font-family: verdana; font-size: 12px;\">See if you can get a deal on the shipping if you buy both Gamers and Family Drift, they seem to be a nice pair.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3356,"template":"","class_list":["post-3355","buffet","type-buffet","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Todd Deutsch - Chasing the Family Drift - Andrew Phelps<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/andrew-phelps.com\/buffet\/todd-deutsch-chasing-family-drift\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"de_DE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Todd Deutsch - Chasing the Family Drift - Andrew Phelps\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"photos by Todd Deutsch Todd Deutsch Chasing the Family Drift &#8211; limited edition book, 2009 Since I have become a father of 2 girls, both still under the age of 6, I can say that my living room and back yard look like the chromatic and metaphoric negative of Todd&#8217;s.
