As in free portraits. Yep. That’s right. This lady is giving away 3 free sessions! Check it out. I know what you’re thinking… “Don’t you take your own photos?” “What do you think you’re doing?” “Isn’t that some sort of conflict of interest?” Well, maybe. But maybe not.

Childproof?

February 20th, 2009 · 1 Comment · bridget

Bridget learned how to open childproof caps on medicine. She asked me for a vitamin a couple of weeks ago. My hands were full, so I told her to hold on a minute and I’d open them for her. She insisted she could do it herself. I told her to go ahead and try, but […]
