I consider this photo to be a major accomplishment. It stands as clear and convincing evidence that Daddy is learning and evolving just as the boys are. For over a year we’ve been struggling to take the twin’s monthly benchmark photo. I’ve danced, bribed, yelled, pleaded, and enlisted Mommy and Carols help to get a usable photo. Sometimes, I’ve taken close to 100 photos over several sessions to get one decent shot. Other times I’ve photo-shopped two photos together to produce a product with both boys looking at the camera. The most successful recent trick I’ve used is to turn on their favorite TV show and photograph them from behind the TV. I gave up trying to get smiles. This month, I promised to play a Thomas the Train movie. They instantly became very happy and cooperative, which produced a good photo. Three cheers for the old dog’s new tricks.
