It feels so good to get out again

Even though photographing my own children is so very frustrating. We had a GREAT day today. Rode the light rail to the Science center, got to meet Michaelangelo (the ninja turtle of course) and then went to the movies. I squeezed in a VERY mini shoot trying to get C's 5 year picture. They might not be the "perfect" portraits, but they are perfect to me and I am so glad I finally took the camera even though taking pictures of my own children never happens the same in real life as they do in my head.
