This photo is about my morning rituals and it's tied in with my roles as father and husband. Most mornings I'm the first one up, and stumble into the kitchen to put on water for tea and start the day's cereal cooking (in this case, oatmeal, but sometimes rice or wheat "kasha" as we call it.) There's a comfort in daily rituals that reinforce our bonds with our loved ones, and, for me, a comfort in photographs of these simple pleasures.
