"That's a cute picture." I think to myself.
"Hey kids, look here and smile!" I say.
"No, look HERE!"
"Seriously, just smile for me real quick please!"
"TRISTAN. SMILE. KATE. OVER HERE."
"OHMYWORDAREYOUKIDDINGME?!?!
JUST SMILE LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!!!!!!"
"Forget it."
Two minutes later...
"Mama, take my picture!" she says.
Story. Of. My. Life.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, taking pictures of one's own children is MUCH harder than photographing other folks' children.
(LOVE the dialogue...totally had me chuckling!!)
I went through this same exchange with my niece & nephews about a month ago. Finally my mom said, "it doesn't have to be perfect." And that's why I'm not a photographer. :-) Your kiddos are so precious!
