I just uploaded my camera-s (there seems to be too many to keep up with these days with the multiple devices that get rotated and clicked about) and found so many silly things my girls have been doing without me “looking” so to speak.
It’s like they were sneaking up on themselves, in an independent way of having a little fun with a camera – where I get to see all that happened. They took sweet selfies all together wearing their pajamas (which my oldest would not approve of me sharing), a slide show display of dog toys, secret attempts to get the little sister on top of the dog for a piggy back ride, games of hide and seek where they find the little girl hiding and just a whole bunch of silliness that I get to replay through the eyes of my children.
The photos are certainly not blog worthy, but something I will treasure and love. They are lovely reminders that popped into my screen of simple moments of silly sister fun, with old party hats, a dog that is just a quirky as they are and the realization that kids can do a perfectly good job of creating their own fun when we just step out of their way.
Some of the games I’m told, involved “the endangered purple bear” and finding the “endangered girl hiding.”
As the for silliness I was involved in – there is local plant and outdoor furniture store with sign out front that says, “stop and take a picture in our huge adoradndic chair.” The big girls read the sign and asked to take turns taking pictures in the chair. And I said yes.
