A Walk

That Kayla sure likes to go on walks. I know, lets go on a walk and take some pictures. I put a cheap, little digital in her hands and immediately she began shooting off some macros of flowers. She led me all the way down the street to her school where we went on the nature trail and took some more pictures. Kayla got some great shots-for someone who has never used a camera, they were awesome. But most importantly I think Kayla and I found something that we both like to do in a combined sense. I will post some of her first work shortly along with a few good ones from the day on wjwphotography.

Kayla Comes Home

Kayla, the possible step daughter to be, -does that make sense?- came home from Dad's house yesterday after a two week holiday visit. She was patiently awaiting my arrival home from work in the driveway because she missed me so much. Nah-she really wanted to open the huge quantity of Christmas presents that have accumilated for her at home during her visit. She was not allowed to open them until I arrived home. Needless to say, I got a huge smile from my gift of a ream of paper. (She asks me daily for paper to draw on) The $100 keyboard I got her was not such a hit. Ah, the simple things in life.

Ava's First Day at the Park

Today, Kayla, Ava, and I took a trip to the local playground where I was totally excited to get Ava on one of those baby swings for the first time. Of course Kayla was excited to go on a walk to the park and was looking forward to demonstrating her wall ball skills. Ava was extremely grateful and awarded me with little giggles and huge smiles. This dad thing is something else!
