Brian
Brian tries to be serious when I'm taking photos, but he's never successful when I try to make him smile. This morning I used a line from the movie, "Miracle." With a thick Boston accent, I said, "Dew yew wanta play cawludge haawkee?" That got him laughing, which accounts for the blurriness of the first image. And looking at these pictures, it's amazing. I can remember when Brian was just a little boy on his first day in Kindergarten. He's becoming a young man now. <sniff>

Liam
What can we say about Liam? Crazy. Exhuberant. Squirmy. At least it was early enough in the morning that he didn't move around too much... In these pictures, I told him to strike a pose.

Bennie
Bennie is as usual, his happy-go-lucky self. I guess a real chip off the old block. Even though he's smiling here, I was teasing him a bit, and he was actually a little miffed. Oh well... Dad's got the camera...

Mairead
I think we've got little model on our hands. Mairead is just too funny! She always wants to pose in some way, and well, the results are obvious. She's very photogenic.

Didi
We are so excited that Didi is entereing Kindergarten. Actually, she's probably more excited that we are. As Mrs. Morris said (we don't have her this year - boo-hoo), "She's so very ready." We like to think so. :)

Here are some pictures of her first day!
