I do have other kids.

However, lately whenever I attempt to take their picture it turns out something like this. Or worse.

As people watch me photograph their children, they often comment that I’m the most incredibly patient person that they’ve ever met. I smile and nod but inside I’m laughing. The truth is, when it comes to taking their pictures, I’m no more patient with my kids than you are with yours. So I go for the easy target. Josh. He turned eight months old yesterday and can’t quite get away from me yet. I’m also his favorite person in the world and his face lights up every time he sees me.
