What spirit is so empty and blind that it cannot recognize the fact that the foot is more noble than the shoe, and skin more beautiful than the garment with which it is clothed? - Michelangelo Why is the Mom in this family picture smiling? Oh, I know. The Dad is wearing shoes. Old Photo Album But my mother was also smiling in our family photo. All three of us look about the same age as this family. Mama said she explicitly told Papa that day long ago that we would sit for a family portrait so we were to don something formal. But lo and behold Papa came in flip flops! Mama wasn't very happy about it. She still placed our picture neatly in the family album though. Family is family, slippers or stilettos. What is unknown to me, besides the identity of this family, is how Father (rest in peace, Pap) ended up in the photo studio wearing slippers when he wore shoes virtually all the time. In fact we only saw him wearing slippers during his retirement. Ah well, so much for shoes. I have ...
CJ's aversion to being photographed is getting worse. Now I have to master the art of stealing shots. This is a rare click that managed to capture most of his face. I'm happy I got his long hair before the lola decided this style should go.
Sometimes I think the aversion is a kind of condition but well... for this week's MM theme: lights, camera, pose...
Voila! that's his pose.
he looks so grown up with that long hair.. and what a pose... :)
ReplyDeletethanks for joining us this week, hope you didn't have too hard a time looking for the appropriate picture!
hahaha nice pose baby :D ganyan talaga pag kids hirap pa pose
ReplyDeleteI love the long hair, he looks like a real rock star,very natural ng dating. :)
ReplyDeleteMagiging ganyan din mga anak ko soon hindi mag pose kailangan we have to be quick in stealing shots. Your son looks like a girl in her long hair and he is a handsome young man.
ReplyDeleteHe is growing up so fast and right before our eyes. :) I wonder if he just doesn't like his picture taken because you are taking them. You know how young kids can be with their parents. Make things as difficult as possible LOL. I know I did that and still do...oh my...I hope he doesn't turn out like that LOL :) Have a great Friday :)
ReplyDeleteHahahah ayaw na ayaw ng paphotographed ni CJ lol.. Kaya ako habang gusto pa nitong mga burritos ko, click lang ng click hehehe. He loks good with long hair but a short hair is tidier.
ReplyDeletehe looks like a girl in that long hair...
ReplyDeletemukhang ganyan ang mga little boys, kailangan stolen ang mga pics nila.
thanks for visiting!
happy MM!
How old is your son, Mommy? When my son is in the mood for posing in front of the camera, that's when I get his best poses. When he's not, it will take forever to get a decent shot of him. LOL!
ReplyDeleteChris, i wouldn't have had any difficulty as 99% of his photos nowadays are either stolen or forced hahah
ReplyDeletezoan, oo nga totoo... :D
Willa, i'll go get him an electric guitar :)
Shy, yong dapat mabilis ka ng pagshoot, tama yon lol... nakakapagod nga lang kung minsan
Thom, yeah i think so too he's growing fast despite being a picky eater. that's a good perspective you have there - how come i didn't think of that angle? boys! lol
chubs, yon ang sabi ng lola nya - mas tidy daw ang maiksi kaya within an hour of our arrival at home, maiksi na kaagad buhok nya.
bonz, napagkamalan yang babae sa immigration in manila people in hongkong were undecided, lol!
