We had our final family Christmas get-together last night with my sister and her family. At the end of the evening, we were talking about pictures and the respective hundreds that we have on our phones. Bubbles walked up and said, “Mom? Can you take my picture?”
I was pretty happy with how this one turned out, but a little sad, too. He used to ask me to take his picture when he was little, and then he’d immediately want to see it. If I was using my digital camera, it worked fine, but he just couldn’t understand why I wouldn’t immediately show him the ones I took with my film camera. Actually, he still doesn’t get it, but anyway.
Cricket and Thumper used to do the same thing, but now when I try to take their pictures, Thumper won’t sit/stand still and Cricket says, “No, Mom – don’t take my picture.”
Guess this means I’m gonna have to improve my stealth skills. 🙂

Seems like the youngest kids get wise to us shutterbug moms too soon.

Indeed! And they’re so darn photogenic, too. Oh, well – maybe they’ll take after Miss Tadpole and start making hilarious faces when I take their pictures. After all, it’s not like I’m gonna stop photographing them just because they won’t hold still. My camera has a sport setting and burst mode for a reason. 😉 😀
