Thanks! Yes, I can make a wonderful slideshow along with this one there will also be the Valentine's shots & the St. Patrick's Day ones. LOL!

Three seconds is plenty of time! Both my little guys like to see the photos, so usually they eventually pose for me. Also I don't think they would recognize me without a camera lens in my face...they are kind of use to me shooting photos all the time. That & I'm usually wearing those Valentine hearts on my head while shooting...they have blinking lights too.

OMG! I love the red hearts!!! So perfect to trot out at prom! Maybe I should invest in the blinky heart lights as my six year old claims that the camera is a death ray. Or maybe I should just limit his Star Wars viewing.

I enjoy taking pictures of children because what ever they are doing it is real...I seem to get better shots of kids when I have the camera at their level, don't hold the camera up high an point down at them, and you can get below them and shoot up, like lay on the ground as they play and then just start snapping away..
