New Year’s Resolution

Jan 24

I take pictures.

I take pictures of kids.

Lots of kids.

However, one of my New Year’s resolutions is the following: take more pictures of kids.

Confused? It might be because I omitted one very important pronoun in that sentence: my.

Let’s try that again: take more pictures of my kids.

You see, my favorite four kids in the universe get shamefully neglected in this area. Mommy goes and shoots for a number hours on a Saturday, Mommy comes back exhausted, Mommy puts camera in closet, camera stays in closet. If we go on a family outing, I want to concentrate on the kids and not work which is why the camera still stays in the closet.

But when I looked over my pictures for 2011, I couldn’t help but feel that something was out of balance. I have thousands of photos of other people’s kids and just a handful of my own. Thus the resolution.

The camera has found it’s way out of the closet and onto a perch on my bookshelf. When my son was engrossed in Lego world, I grabbed the camera. When baby was reading her own little Picture Bible, camera. You get the point.

Over the next couple of weeks, I’ll be posting some photos of my kids. Today I’ll start with some photos snapped this week of my baby girl. Enjoy!
