Description To be more correct, a father and one of his two daughters.
This is my dad, with my little sister, Sophie.

Soph's almost four! They grow up so fast. I remember holding her when she was only about one day old! She...um...farted...on me...

I love the expressions on their faces. The photo presented here, is exactly as the camera saw it (minus the watermark), and was taken in black and white. I just noticed this: She looks like she's eating Dad's elbow.

I hope you like it!

The photo was taken at my dad and stepmom's house in Texas.

EDIT - March 21, 2008
As a response to ~5tring3r 's comment, I have wholly revamped the watermark to make it less obtrusive on the picture and more transparent. He made me realize that you really couldn't see Sophie's hands, which adds to the expressiveness of the photo.

EDIT - March 25, 2008
I know I haven't responded to comments lately, but that's because I want to wait until summer, when I'll get to show Dad and Sophie the comments...I want them to respond too. So, although you may not get comments back on this deviation soon, I appreciate them so very much.

EDIT - April 13, 2008
I forgot to tell you that, on April 7, 2008, Sophie turned four years old.

And I know exactly what you mean about them growing up so fast! I have a little sister too and I can't believe she's in school, lol. XD

Nice picture. Their expressions are lovely.

At first quick glance - I thought of Johnny Cash! Presumably the b&w and the guitar!
