Snapshots

A little tidbit about my oldest, Aria Grace - and I don't want any stereotyping when I say this - but mercy, does that child LOVE to take pictures.  When she was a mere twenty-months old, she knew how to not just turn on the camera, but to change the settings and frame her subject, properly, I might add. 

(I said no stereotypes!)

The upside of this:  maybe I'm raising the next Annie Leibovitz.  The downside:  going through the hundreds - not kidding - hundreds of pictures she's taken on my camera, and now occupying precious space on my hard drive.  Which is why it has taken me so terribly long to get Caroline's birthday pictures onto this blog. 

But glory be, I've finally done it, so I hope you enjoy...
