Philippe mon ami,
Some of the most important pictures we take through out our lives are those 
of our children. Certainly as they grow older.... Our children always do 
that much too fast! :-) I have enjoyed some of my most interesting picture 
taking moments when I sit with my grand children showing them pictures of 
their mother or father when they were little kids.

Great howls of laughter, then sometimes they start teasing their father or 
mother as the case maybe. :-)

It is one of the great things about still photography I don't think some 
folks appreciate until it's to late! :-(

Despite my comments about flash / strobe the other day. :-) I learned how to 
use multiple strobe lighting with my Number 1 Son as a model in his high 
chair. I'd give him some candy or other "by today's standards sweet things" 
and he sat there as happy as he could be while I flashed away using a 2 1/4 
Rollieflex and Multiblitz strobe units. :-)

We still have all those negatives around here in sleeves some place. But 
they are a treasure trove of our lives as a family.

Your sweet Margaux will be bringing a boy friend home before you realize 
she's that old so fast. :-)

cheers,
ted
