> Hi Jim,
> Nothing wrong with that family moment. These simple "un-aware her picture

> This has far more real life meaning to it than the ... "Look at grandpa and
> smile!" same old photos we see so often!
>
> When she is older, as in  a mature woman it's these kind of pictures they
> enjoy seeing far more than all the Portrait sitting photos taken over the
> years.
>
> Our two daughters when we get to see them bring up something of a photo I
> took 40 years ago when they were little bitty things.
>
> Don't lose this one as it's one to cherish for it's simplicity.
