I arrived at Kananpaha Veterans Memorial Park where Mr. Christian was already running around with all that typical two year old boy energy… something I encounter on a daily basis. I immediately pulled out my tricks to see which he would go for first… BALLOONS! Only he wanted to let go of the string and watch Mom jump as high as she could to grab it before it floated away in the sky. He thought this game was HILARIOUS! Of course! So off to the slide we went, lasted two minutes before he figured out how to climb like a monkey backwards up the biggest slide in the park. Again, in true boy fashion! Finally, BUBBLES! The winning ticket! Christian loved sitting on the lawn blowing BIG bubbles with his mommy. And finally I got the “shots”.. you know the ones that make you tear. I should have known all the while it’s not my bag of tricks that make the shoot, it’s the connection and interaction between a child and their parent(s). By far the sweetest moments of this whole shoot was just Mom and Christian being exactly that… Mother and Child. And then I wanted to go home to my boys. I LOVE these moments of just playing with your child, and they are so excited to be playing with you they stop “vrooming” the car on the carpet just to come give you a quick kiss… as if to say “Thanks Mommy for stopping everything to play with me!” I LIVE for these moments, and I am confident so does Mr.Christian’s mom.
