Taking photos of a two year-old is a terrific challenge. Particularly *my* two year olds, who don’t happen to know what it means to sit still and look at me for two seconds. I’ve learned to take 300 pictures in the span of 5 minutes and hope for the best. Usually about 285 of those are blurry. The other 15 look something like this:

But it is often the less than perfect pictures that capture my heart.
And at the very least, I’ve captured a moment in time that will never return.
