Does anyone else hold her breath when beginning a ‘blog photo shoot?’
We do….EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
You see, when dealing with a very active and opinionated almost three year old,
you just never know what you are going to get!
Your labor of love – shown to the blogging world – rests on the shoulders of this energetic being…..and, well, you can never plan what might happen next….
We have been known to ‘invent’ distractions – such as the infamous opossum search during one photo shoot. What fun!
But then there are the moments when everything falls into place – and that almost three year old hones in to a “very special object”….distracting her just long enough to snap a few classic pictures.
Practically panting at the beauty she was beholding.
It was just too good to be true…
You would have thought she had found the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow
with a response like this…
Holding on tightly for the remainder of our photo shoot….
{and even bringing it inside to put in a vase at the conclusion}.
Over and over, emphatically stating, “It’s soooooo beeeauuuutiful!”
Then, proceeding to test the umbrella attributes of the mushroom in hand….
I’d say the shading part came in handy in the heat of the day.
The adage remained true: “Beauty IS in the Eyes of the Beholder”….
But, I think I’d take the child over the mushroom any day!
