I wanted to post a big thank you on behalf of aidanthetoo to Melethia. When we posted that Aidan had officially joined the Clan of Too last week she volumteered to donate a Canon Powershot A40 to the littlest member. He now has a camera that Mommy and Daddy are not freaking out about him using and he can take as many shots as he wants. Its like a lightning storm going on in our house with all the flashing going off.

I will continue to post pics of his in my portfolio so everyone can see his progress. That is until some generous soul cares to donate a membership so he can have his own portfolio :) (Seriously I am just kidding about this - please do not donate a membership to a 4 year old. Would gladly accept any donations of a 5d though.)

Again - thank you Deb! You are a ridiculously generous person and we truly appreciate it. My boy is in heaven taking pictures of anything and everything.

Not sure if this pic needs a warning but this would be Aidans favorite apparel ensemble for taking pictures (and basically everything else in life).

Wow, very generous, Deb. I'm glad there are people like you in this world.

You know if I could get away with dressing like that to take pictures I would too.

Yeah, Deb!

Well, isn't that the coolest thing! :-)

You're welcome! Glad to see it got there - wasn't sure if it would be today or Monday. I'm looking forward to Aidan's creations! (PS, couldn't find the second CF card, so hopefully that one will hold enough for an hour or two before you have to clear it off for him.)

Very Cool--

That is an awesome little camera, I still miss mine!

Oh, and I best warn you... my younger nephew went through a phase where he'd grab his mom's point and shoot and run off. Marion would simply yell after him... "No more penis pictures!" :-)

And yes, it's a fine little camera - it was my introduction into the digital world, and essentially my re-introduction into photography in general.

Yeah Odyssey uses a P&S too. it's so nice not have to allow her to touch my 5d. lol. You're a better person than I to let him use your camera before. he'll have a ball with the P&S though i'm sure. Take lots of pics Aidan!!!! :)

A truely wonderful gesture on Deb part, and what an inspiration for a little boy.
He would have to be in dreamland.
I know he is going to be famous one day, so watch out everyone, and keep an eye on this young man.

Just to show how much he loves his camera. He didnt want to go to bed without it. I am curious as to what we will find on his memory card in the morning.

Awww... that's too sweet! I'm positively delighted he's so happy with it!
