She insists on riding the giant Wonder Wheel by herself. “Can I come with you?” NO daddy!

“Little” 2010
She obviously didn’t care for the romantic part of the movie and I can’t remember which film we saw…

NYC 2008
I think this is a pretty decent photograph. I go out of my way to get a very talented guitarist to sing Happy Birthday to my daughter, and he’s rocking his butt off, but my kid is much more concerned with what her friends are doing. It could have been Jimi Hendrix and she would still say “who cares, he’s boring daddy”…

“Yankee Down” NYC 2004
Kids are definitely more than a challenge sometimes. I guess some are easy, but mine has been paying me back for all the grief I gave my parents many years ago…

Coney Island 2007
I think this may have been taken in Astroland but the main story is that “Little” loves the water gun game, and always loses. Finally last year with a lifetime record of 0-15 she beat a young boy and was thrilled with her victory. It’s amazing that winning can be so important to a girl at such a young age, but I guess it’s just part of the human condition…

It’s not easy being small in a big world…

“September 25th 2001”
This is a picture of my daughter when she was born about 8 1/2 years ago. I am not quite sure that my daughter likes this photograph, but I’m posting it anyway.

“Baby Phat” 2005
This is what my daughter said ” I was real chubby-wubby in that bathing suit. Oh yeah little me you should know that it is very rude to point at some one.”

“Ipod Fever” 2010
It’s weird to have sired a bonafide “Techie”. Actually it’s weird to have sired anyone at all, but that’s another story. She’s almost as good at troubleshooting as I am, except when she doesn’t get her way with a computer, then look out. I should build a custom “Nerf” computer for her. As I get older and more useless, it will be cool to have her at my beck and call to fix what ever problems OS 11 or OS 12 has…
“Egg Breaker” 2004
This is my daughter after she broke a carton of eggs. One day she will break a lot more than eggs…

“The Garden” 2003
I guess the most common reaction to this picture is that it could have been taken during any era. The kid sitting in the foreground is my daughter. In 21st century New York it’s difficult to make a “timeless” image. Once again, this is an old scan from a print and one day I’ll upgrade it, but not now…

The Water Flume at Coney Island’s Astroland by Mike Peters 2007
Mike Peters used a longish lens on his trusty Hasselblad to capture me and my kid on the old Water Flume, which is the same one that was at the 1964 worlds fair. Despite the look of sheer terror, she enjoyed it very much and went a few more times!
“Motorcycle Girl” 2006
Best motorcycle rider ever. Well maybe not because the motorcycle was connected to a circle that moves. But my daughter looked like she had some fun.
