If You Give a Kid a Camera...

Natalee loves to take pictures. She got a camera for her birthday, and it was one of those "kid" cameras. It didn't work right (deleted all the pictures in the memory every time it was turned off) and I had to take it back. It was heartbreaking, but we are working on a solution. In the meantime however, I do let her use my camera when she sees something she simply must photograph.

A few weeks ago we went out to dinner with some of Nathan's family. We were at a Chinese restaurant and Natalee was the youngest person in the group by several years. So while all the grown up people were talking, she naturally got bored. I pulled out the camera, thinking that she'd like to look at the photos. However, what she really wanted to do was snap some pictures of her own. Mind you, the following are a few of the more than 30 that she took, including ones of the people sitting behind us, but these are prime examples of her work. The dragon, which I think was meant to entertain us, but was really pretty obnoxious.

The ceiling....which was beyone beautiful.

How do I know? Of all the pictures taken that night, probably half were of the ceiling.With all those shots of the ceiling, were you wondering what the floor looked like? Well, wonder no more!The vase of chopsticks. Nat was pretty confused as to why they are called "chop" sticks, since you eat with them and they aren't used to chop anything. My favorite: Her clean plate
