When my old digital camera died, I gave it to Emily to play with. There were no batteries in it and for a while she was satisfied with just pretending. But then she asked for batteries so she could take pictures. I decided to show her how to use it and see what would happen. What has happened is a wonderful, huge collection of photos that Emily has taken herself. After only a few days, she has figured out how to take photos (and not just of the floor anymore), how to review her photos and I think she's teaching herself the zoom function already. Beth asked that I put some of her photos up here.
I know it is just a two-year old fooling around with a camera but to me it is also a glimpse into how she sees the world, how she interprets it... and what it's like to be so freaking short.
Being that there were a few I wanted to put up, I decided to post them through
Flickr. Here is a taste of what you'll see there:

Abby loves taking pictures too. She now often helps herself to my camera and I never know she's used until I transfer the pictures to the computer. She's actually taken some really great pictures and I have a set of hers on flickr as well. My blogger profile pic is one she took and I love it.
I always like seeing the world through her eyes.
That's great!

OK, that is just too cool! What an amazing way to see what she sees. Definitely something that I will remember for Junior!
