Sometimes you get caught in the moment and not want their *help* so you can get it done faster. Then, the guilt comes. They are only little for a moment. In fifty years, I will look back on this photograph and weep. I will remember the details of that very day she helped me fold clothes. I would take one image like this than 100 posed images of her staring perfectly into the camera forcing a smile for me.
Your words are so true and this makes me sad :( Always in a hurry to get chores over with, and pushing them aside when all they want is to just help. I know this feeling and am so guilty of it! Then before you know it they are adults :(
I agree with you, this will be a wonderful souvenir!! A funny sequence, I love baby's hairs!! Why don't you try to take a picture with the baby inside the machine, without closing the door of course...or the child will be really scared. Regards Andrea
