I think it shows the unpredictability of kids, no matter who is taking the picture. Sometimes you can get through a whole photo shoot and only have imperfect pictures to choose from!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-4924596885009145032020-11-28T10:46:11.282-06:002020-11-28T10:46:11.282-06:00I'm the OP.

Speaking for myself, as a mom, I fussed over taking a picture of my kids and me. I would make sure all outfits and hairstyles were presentable. Everyone was instructed to "look at the camera and smile". Babies were held in position to get the best photo possible. Retakes were common. <br />Looking back, I realize I needed to take more "natural" pictures like my husband (and John). <br />Like I said, I think John and his daughters' picture is darling. <br />I do keep up with John and Alyssa's family because we also live in Florida and we share many of their experiences.

So she walks into the ice cream shop and a couple of people comment of how cute her kids are. She says thanks but this baby is my grandchild but the 4 year old is mine. Everybody appears shocked and one guy even drops his ice cream on the floor in shock.
