i bought my oldest son his first camera today which you see him with here. after his afternoon nap we went downtown to pick up a starter we had rebuilt that we dropped off earlier this morning. after that little adventure i took him to my favorite alley downtown and let him get nuts with his camera. i even set him up with his own flickr account so that i could sort of keep track of it all and share it with the people around me. my only plan is to upload them as they are and write a little on his behalf until he can do it himself.

as i type this he is right next to me shooting away and having a ball with his new toy. thank you fisher price.
