Personality

Abby never fails to amaze me. Of all of our children, she seems to have been blessed with the grace and demeanor of someone beyond her years. She has recently taken up photography. No, not professionally. Not even with permission to use the camera. We just seem to find her snapping photos of inanimate objects, her sister, or herself. She has been respectful with the cameras, just fails to ask permission to use them (this does not make her brother happy, Ian likes his camera).

So the other day Josh and I were "lounging" on the bed watching the stock market fall when Abby came in to cuddle with us. I jokingly took out the camera and lo an behold, Abby started posing!! It was so cute it was funny. Josh and I could not stop laughing. At one point we wondered if CPS would come looking for us. She is a riot!!

This would be her "frog" pose. An original.

I laugh at how serious she tries to be. Posing as if

for a magazine cover!

This last one is daddy's favorite. She resembles him almost as a carbon copy. She has such a photogenic way about her, maybe we will indulge her new found love of the camera? Mind you, her Christmas 2006 photo-she is crying in it.

Ok all you grandma and grandpa's. Here is a nice close up of that sweet little devil. Don't let the looks fool you, she can be quite the sneaky trouble starter.
