“Only by joy and sorrow does a person know anything about themselves and their destiny.
They learn what to do and what to avoid.”~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Olivia Stacy is extremely hard to photograph, and even harder to catch with a smile. I’ve tried and tried and tried, but she’s at that age where she couldn’t be less interested in a camera if it was an ugly Santa smoking a Cuban. So, I was pretty excited that when I caught this bright smile. Of course, adults on Santa’s knee do tend to draw the attention of the younger crowd. Unlike that ugly Santa with a Cuban, Olivia was quite interested in what Tebby Lykins was telling Kris Kringle. I’m not sure who the kid really is in these pictures. I would expect no less of Tebby. He’s always been a big kid, and that’s part of what makes him so awesome. Tebby and Olivia both smiling: this is a winning Christmas for this gal.
