Ellie's Photos

The other day when we were at the Butterfly Pavilion with our Magic Butterfly Hat, Ellie asked very politely if she could use the camera to take pictures of pretty things. I love seeing what she felt was worthy of a photo... It gives me a look into how she views the world around her...






What I found to be particularly interesting is that she never once took a photo of a butterfly.

Ellie's Photos I

Ellie got a camera for Christmas and I've been excited to see what things she thinks are worth taking photos of. It's a whole different way of seeing the world through a child's eyes that I have yet to experience. I think we need to figure out how to get the flash to work better, but these aren't too bad for a first-pass. I love how so many of them are pictures of Addie, and pictures of Addie up close to the camera at that. It makes me giggle. And I love how Ellie will ask "Is it ok if I take a picture of you?" Yes! Yes! Please... take a picture of whatever makes you smile!

Anyway, without further ado, I give you Ellie's photos:
