Oh yeah. You've been there. If you have kids, you have CERTAINLY been there. It's photo hell. It's when you dress the kids up, fill them up with yummy goldfish snacks, and have juice handy - all coaxing and pleading to please smile for the camera. Then it hits you. SLAM! There is not a darn thing in this world you can do to make your kids smile. Not a thing. Not even a piece of candy. Suddenly one child starts screaming. Not to be outdone by her sister, then the other starts screaming. All the while mommy is dripping in sweat and trying not to have an utter breakdown. The mosquitos start biting and the kids just scream louder. People stare and point. Other moms give you the well meaning "oh dear God that poor lady" look. Then you finally realize - OK game over. No pictures today. Carry on folks. Carry on. There will be another day.
It all started well with Jill
Then the lost looks began
Then the screaming ensued
Ohhhh Katie, I will put this in your room when you are a teenager and I will show your first boyfriend. Mommy's revenge. :)
Yep, the fits continued throughout the park. Good Times!
This is when mommy gave up. I said, 'screw the kid pictures, I am going to capture some photos of things that can't throw fits and scream.'
So they are not screaming here. They started feeding the fish and turtles.
