My Ada

I remember this conversation very clearly from when Ada was just three…
Me: Ada, do you want more?
Ada: silence
Me: Ada, please answer me.
Ada: I answered you with my eyes.
Me: Your eyes don’t talk.
My dad: Oh yes they do.

And they really do.  She has the most expressive eyes and eyebrows I’ve ever seen.  Her feelings are made known before she ever says a word, and she doesn’t need body language either.  It is all on her face.

This morning she made one of those faces, her “I’ve been wronged” face, and I tried to capture it but I was too late and she couldn’t make it again because the feeling had passed.  I was able, however, to capture shy morning Ada.

These are the sweet faces I want to capture forever.  I just got an iPhone this week, and this is exactly why.  I wouldn’t have taken the time to pull out our big camera, check to see which lens is on it, take some pictures, then get the cord out to download the pictures to the computer.  But I will grab my phone which is nearby to take some pictures.  Easy peasy.  So my posts will most likely have more pictures now. 🙂
