Abby is a poser...not someone who strives to put on a front, but a real poser....for pictures. If any sort of camera is spied by Abby---phone camera, video camera, pretend cameras---Abby immediately strikes some sort of a pose. This trait has been a basis of her personality since she was old enough to recogonize a camera. She loves to be the center of attention (which I must admit is similar to my wants when I was her age). At about 18 months old, she began her mindset of "life's a stage." Since that point, she will break into song, dance, or pose at any given moment....regardless of the appropriateness of the timing or location. As a young mother, I often become frustrated when she lingers in these moments as opposed to doing as I commanded. However, when she is sweetly dreaming in her bed and I take a peek at her peaceful face, I know these moments are fleeting and I will soon want those little glimpses of her innocence to return. So in the meantime, as she continues to grow up too fast, I will pray for patience and learn to slow down and enjoy those moments more. Her personality leaves a fingerprint on all the hearts she touches. Enjoy some of the poses I captured!!!
