I really have only one reason to think this--it is virtually impossible to get my kids to look at the camera when taking their picture. They will point their faces toward the camera, smile/say cheese/grimace (whatever they feel like doing), but it takes many shots before you can get them to slip up and look at the camera.

So true! I haven't been taking very many pictures of my boys lately because they are UNCOOPERATIVE! Especially my third child. You know who.
I know it is so hard getting a good picture with everyone looking in the right direction. I have award you a blog award. Check out my blog for details.
