And so it begins

Isn’t this a great shot of Mac? Ada took it.

While we were outside playing/taking photos on Friday, I asked Ada if she wanted to take a photo. She answered, “No. It’s too big.” True. I wasn’t planning on her doing it herself,but I should know better by now. Ada always wants to do things herself, and you don’t dare help her unless she asks*. I decided that it was time. She’s four. She will pick up the basic operations easily. It really is the perfect time to get her started. We went back inside the house to search for my old Canon Powershot G5.

I found it nestled in its bag in the office. It has not been used since I loaned it out just after she was born. Therefore, I started my search over for the universal battery charger. I found it, plugged the battery in, and told her we could use it tomorrow. It is now her camera.

This morning, Ada came up from the office holding a brochure for the zoo. I was hesitant at first, especially since Mac wanted to go to Topeka instead of KC, mainly due to KC being mostly walking, Dippin’ Dots and twice the admission cost. I agreed on Topeka, and Ada was excited not only to see the animals, but to “take her pictures.”

I created a collection for all of her photos. The Topeka Zoo set photos are her first ever.

*It is one of her best traits, especially combined with her stubborness persistence.
