Like funerals and weddings, cameras can bring out the best and worst of people.  Alyssa turns into a defiant and unco-operative minx, and Luke turns into a completely poseable figurine.

Yesterday, Luke was playing on my computer with his favourite game "Jump Start Explorers".  I took the opportunity to try and get a fairy dress on Alyssa and get some snaps.  I bought it for her last year, and have never been able to have it on her for more than 30 seconds.  I have found by telling her that it is Kelly's dress(a playgroup friend) she seizes the moment and wants to wear anything. (wicked)  So, she put on the fairy dress, and I didn't try too hard to make her pose, it's not her thing.  I got some nice shots, and then LUKE REALISED WHAT WE WERE DOING.  I quickly explained that I just wanted to get some girlie fairy like pictures and we'd do something special for him next time.  Luke and cameras....well, he loves them.  He couldn't resist trying.
