school photos

Tom is still to get his own photo taken at childcare yet which is amazing considering how many he has attended in his short life to date. But this week he was privileged to be invited to his sister's pre-school sitting. As we waited our turn I looked on with pity at the mum's tearing their hair out as their kids chased each other around, or pulled faces at each other whilst the photographer waited patiently for calm. However when our turn came, it was a strenuous task indeed to tear Tom away from my leg and to get something resembling a smile from him. Ela meanwhile, used to being under the camera, painted her cheesy grin on and held fast. The result is much better than I had expected, with Tom looking very much like the rugby player his dad hopes he'll become.
