Fostering Interests

I’m sure I say this every year, but, I love the age my kids are at right now – don’t get me wrong, I definitely wish they were still tiny and squishy, but, I love that they’re becoming independent tiny adults.  Makes my mama heart happy to see my kids trying new things and enjoying life in general.  I never want to stifle their interests, instead it’s my job to foster their interests (unless that interest involves creepy crawly things and danger).

My son has recently become very interested in photography so my husband and I got him his own Polaroid camera so that he can take photos and get that instant gratification of a tangible photo.  So, Ryder asked if he could take pictures of me yesterday when I got home from work.  He grabbed my phone, opened up the camera app, selected the portrait option and away we went!  I have to say, he’s not too shabby at this photography business.  A few are a little grainy, but, I love them all the same even if they’re not “professionally” done.

He though it was hilarious to bark orders about poses I should do…including a dab or two per his request.  I may very well have rolled my eyes a few times, but, he was having a blast and it was so sweet to see him excited about the next shot.  I love that I can document things my kids have done here and share them with everyone because their accomplishments make me beam with pride.

He may very well be onto something and if he’s not careful, he will be my new photographer…sorry, husband!
