well, first of all. melt.my.heart. how sweet that she wants to be like mommy. second of all, how sweet that she thinks i'm a "poh-tah-gruh-per" because i'm so not! and third of all, this is the kid who use to say DON'T take my PICture mommy!
so...the fisher price camera just wasnt cutting it, but i'd recently found my old (think almost 7 years old) point and shoot and have been letting her play around with it. the 2G card fills up fast and the old battery dies quickly, but she loves it!
she's constantly telling her baby sisters to say cheese. so we had a discussion today about real smiles and cheese smile...which is why we always do silly things to make her and her sisters smile or laugh when we're taking pictures. this was a say cheese picture from my perspective.
and here it is from hers! see the cheeeeeeeese!
of course she then turned the camera to take a few self portraits of her own! can we say hilarious?!?!
all of this was to see how she'd treat the super old camera to determine if i would let her use my much newer point and shoot. it hasn't been a complete fail because i found her camera carefully placed near where i keep mine; but she didn't actually know it was there. today she asked if she could take pictures. of course we said, where is your new camera? she replied: I don't know; but your "big black camera" is right up there (pointing at the mantle which happens to currently be the only safe place from oh so curious 2 year olds in our house), and i'd be SUPER careful with it.
um...no. because you're 4. because you've already (temporarily) misplaced the old point and shoot. and because that would be my NEW "big black camera" that you're referring to!
maybe in a few years dear. just maybe.
