At first I said no.

After watching me take many pictures of this cute little bunny that visited our yard, my youngest asked if he could take some pictures.

I had just put the camera back in the house and sat down in the hammock.

I knew I should probably put a strap on the camera(we never use them) if he was going to walk around with it.

So I said now was not a good time.

As soon as I said it though I realized his excitement and interest made it a great time.

I did not know how interested he would be in taking pictures when it was more convenient for me.

Isn’t this one of the reasons I homeschool so that my kids can pursue something because they actually want to know more about it instead of it being the next chapter in the textbook?

So I went inside and got my backup camera ready for him to use.

I think saying not right now is okay.

My boys know that I am not there to grant their every wish.

I am just glad this time I said yes.

My oldest tends to question shots.

He deletes them and tries again.

My youngest on the other hand had only good things to say about his pictures.

I heard “got it” over and over again.

These are two of the shots he took.

I love seeing my boys learn with enjoyment.
