The Sweetest Swinger

This kid was just adorable at the park today. He was giggling and happy and truth be told, he melted my heart. I think that black babies are some of the cutest. If I wanted to adopt a child, I think it would be one just like this little guy.

So I had to have a shot of him. My sister suggested I ask the lady with him, but I decided to just creep up and take a quick shot. He saw me, though and pointed me out to his guardian. I quickly spun and innocently looked at the flowers nearby. Eek.

This has been a very kid filled week for me. I hoped to approach some adults in the city park, but I chickened out.

We had a super fun time having one last summer fling in the park downtown. My kids loved playing in the fountains and I got some fun photos of them.
Cute kid. I'd go for a little chinese baby myself. They tend to be super clever and have a good re-sale value.

The older grandma I become, the less suspicious people are of me when I ask to photograph their children. These are the perks of being gray that you have to look forward to, Amanda!

@cejaanderson Jane, I've found that too, age has its advantages!
Great shot Amanda, love the look he is giving you.
