Maybe a little smooch on the cheek. The wife has a Jekyll and Hyde thing that is triggered by me kissing young girls. I love both Jekyll and Hyde but one is easier on me.

Oh good idea I love how you push everyone to get pets for you to live vicariously through

Well I surely don't qualify as a young girl now do I? LOL Well here is a cyber kiss on the cheek for making me feel young! *big smooch* (on cheek)!

Finally got the kid to sleep. His first day of school is tomorrow.

G'mae good peeps...

Guess it is my turn to ask for prayers, good thoughts, and healing air to my nephew.

As you know he has had a strange gait that they have had tested with no conclusive results. Now they are going to the University of Wisconsin and testing for the various forms of Ataxia - Another Link. Just reading about it, his symptoms certainly fit many of the characteristics. However, we are waiting for as conclusive diagnosis as we can, in the meantime, life goes on as usual, preparing for the worse news but hoping and praying for much better news.

Done, "May he walk and grow normally and enjoy life to its fullest."

A rant for you LISA >>For your Birthday

Wow Deb, beautiful.

Thank you all so much for your kind, heartfelt words. It really means a lot to me to know how much you care. I am also very fortunate to have a very close family, who all have similar values and thoughts on things, which makes this time more bearable.

I know it is silly, but today what is weighing on me most is the fact we have decided to not tell Caitlin anything until her return next Friday, the 22nd. She is a very emotional girl, and with only her best friend but no family there, we believe it to be the best. This is a very special time in her life, and we don't want to take anything away from it.

If she's turned out like you, she'll understand. You're a good Daddy.

Becky, all my best thoughts for your nephew are being sent, and for you and the rest of his family. I may have missed this, but how old is he?

Thanks to all for the continued support.

My mom went back home a short while ago, she has been here since Dad's first heart attack. I think she could use some time alone. On leaving, she commented on how much she is going to miss having Jasper around her though, as he has been a huge bundle of joy for everyone lately, that is for sure. His 'full of beans' disposition can't help but make folks smile.

More Jasper pic's please........

Well perhaps she needs Jasper's brother who was not yet spoken for to keep her busy?

Yup, sounds like a great idea.

I was thinking along those lines....


Flying home folk Catch you on the other side...

Hi Terri, you back yet?

Hi Bobert, I'm sure glad I have one graduated and the other two in high school. Time sure flies...

Like, first day EVER? That's a pretty big milestone. Does he go for a full day?

Evening Esteban . Yeah, I'm sure I'll wake up someday and think that it was just yesterday that he started Kinder.

Good LAWD, now I know why there are so many "What should I charge" threads in the business section.

I normally just give image CDs with my shoots, but the one I'm doing tomorrow wants prints with package choices.
I've been going through Mpix's pricings and trying to come up with reasonable, yet profitable pricing, and I'm having a loony of a time.

No, not first day ever. First day for this year only . He has done Pre-K for 2 years and this year will be the first that he has to wear the proper school uniform, button up shirt, tie and slacks....which has to remain tucked in. He does go for a full day, 8-315.

Wouldn't that work against you to derive pricing from MPix or any other print outlet? I would think they base their prices on a volume sales matrix.

Oh and I think you need to provide some Amikah shots such as this one --> https://photography-on-the.net …p?p=5855294&pos​tcount=515

Well, I use Mpix for printing, so I was figuring my cost before figuring out my pricing. I don't know any other way to do it.

And I saw that one a while ago.. it's funny, huh? I'd provide if we had a pool. Sheesh, I gave you a wet Amikah rant not too long ago, but the stream water wasn't good enough, eh?

Cat I usually troll other local photographers sites for pricing ideas!

Uniforms sometimes seem s nice, no issues about what to wear.
