When you get four kids and two dogs together, you aren’t working with the easiest of subject matter.
A while back I wanted to take a picture with all my “kids” in it. As you will see, it wasn’t as easy as just pointing and shooting. God must answer prayers, forces must align, some kind of nirvana must be reached, or maybe it’s just luck.
I have concluded that the key is perseverance!
Take One
Ut Oh! Mama forgot the flash.
It’s still not bright enough, for those natural lighting conditions, this particular morning.
Take Two
I still neglected to pop up the flash; though everyone’s looking.
Now might be the time to move the playpen out of the way.
Take Three
There’s that flash.
Summer can you not show your butt, please?
Take Four
Summer. Darn it! Would you please cooperate.
Here’s were I started praying to God to intervene.

I know the pain. I tried to do one child this weekend and only one out of the 60 that I took came out. And he had that stupid “cheese” face.
My best advice is try not to take a picture with him smiling. Get him playing with some tinsel, or holding his stocking, or playing with some primary colored blocks, or what-have-you! You’ll be surprised how much you’ll love a shot of your guy not smiling!
