photografriends who help
are just the best!! My pals Alan Abrams (http://www.alanabramsphotography.com) and Amandarelli (ok, her name is really Amanda Saldarelli but Alan named her Amandarelli and it stuck, she’s at http://www.amandasaldarelliphotography.com) came over a week or two ago to help me out with off camera flash techniques and set ups. We had a little champagne, hung out in the new office and finally got to work. Thanks to both of you for the fun evening and help! You guys are the best, and you make me laugh. A lot!

His I Am poem from the beginning of this school year (7th grade).
Patrick
Clever, Smart, Friendly
Son of John and Beth
Who loves baseball, learning new things and sharing new ideas.
Who feels that the Mets have to eventually win a World Series, school is top of the list important, and pondering and being curious is a necessity to succeed.
Who finds happiness in baseball, 100%s on tests, and building legos
Who needs amazing friends and an unlimited supply of Lego bricks.
Who fears failing a test, the US turning to the side of communism, and vile, vicious reptiles.
Who would like to play for the New York Mets, the Yankees to disappear, and go to an Ivy League College.
Who enjoys watching baseball, vacations to Disney, and doing well in school.
Resident of Long Island.

Love my Patrick- my second born twin who doesn’t like to admit it but still loves hugs, is his own hardest critic, an amazingly talented writer, and cannot stand anyone two faced.
And do you notice some similarities between him and Jack? (Jack’s post yesterday). Twins much? But there are a few differences too and it makes me excited to see who they are turning into as they grow up.

jack
His I Am poem from the beginning of this school year (7th grade)
Jack
Stubborn, Comical, Clumsy
Who loves a well-played baseball game, his amazing, wonderful family and any kind of Lego brick.
Who feels the Yankees should die off and leave New York, the US should run a British style Parliament, and that ice cream should be considered a real dinner.
Who finds happiness in being with his wacky friends, reading a good book and going to church.
Who needs the Mets to win 30 consecutive World Series against the Yankees and go to an Ivy League school.
Who fears Communist aggression, wiry, coiled, man-eating snakes and being alone in the middle of the ocean.
Who would like one million dollars, a delectable fudge-filled brownie (yum) and equal human rights for everyone.
Who enjoys baseball, history, and most of all – being himself.
Resident of the tri-state area.

He’s definitely full of opinions. Love my boy- my first born, the one who always wants everyone to be nice and fair, who trips over air, and who is always ‘red’.
