Emily has been babysitting a few times a month (bright and early, for the little boys across the street ~ whose mom works the night shift). She has been saving up money to buy a new camera. She finally did it and is enjoying her new "toy"! She's been experimenting with all its nifty modes and features. Her favorites are the black and white mode, the 'smile feature' (where the camera will automatically take a photo when it determines that you are smiling!) and the color highlight mode (where it takes a black and white photo, except for one particular color which it will highlight for you). Fortunately she has lots of willing (and did I mention silly?) subjects to practice her budding photography skills on!
