My Aunt Cheryl (Mommy's Sister) sent me a disposable camera for Christmas when I was 2 and a half. Mommy and Daddy bought me another after I used up all the shots. I could see the pictures in the camera, but had a hard time because the pop-up flash would move the camera while I was pressing the shutter. Mommy gave me her Ricoh AF-100, and it was just right for awhile. PaPaw made a neckstrap for me.

PaPaw and I went to Seattle to visit Aunt Cheryl and Brandi. Pa told Aunt Cheryl buy me a $15 camera to use while we were there. I took 5 rolls of film! But the flash battery didn't always work. One time the battery fell out while I was taking a picture!

For my birthday, Pa and Grammie bought me a new Vivitar camera. It has a zoom lens just like Pa's. We'll see if the pictures are better.

I took these pictures when we went 
to Cincinnati to see Great Grandma Marci

 

When you're my size, these are the first things you see...

 

...and every once in a while, you get lucky.

I took a picture of Grammy and PaPaw with his camera. Mommy had to help me hold it, though. Here it is! I really used Pa's big camera! All photos above © 1998 Cassi Jane
