dekita! I did it!

Tokyo, 2010.03.03

The Boy let out a proud whoop of "Dekita" today. We looked out from the kitchen to see that he had my DSLR in hand.

This is the photo he'd taken.

He'd managed to turn the camera on and more or less aim it at something and release the shutter. Good work kiddo! Now please put the camera down.
