Shelby at Play

I'm not sure why I'm fascinated while I watch Shelby play. Maybe it's because she's playing independently and I'm "allowed" to do other things and I'm amazed she's actually leaving me alone. Or maybe it's because it's fun to see her pretend play and imagination growing and expanding. Well, maybe it's a little bit of both. But, it always turns out that when she's playing independently I end up trying to snap pictures of her to capture the moment. And by doing so I ruin the time I had to myself to finish chores, shower, get dressed, eat etc. In the end, I think the pictures are worth it.
