Today when I was shooting one of my before and after pics on Commerce and 3rd, I saw a little family walking West past me. Mom, Dad and 4 kids. A girl and three boys. The 3 boys all were dressed identically in Dallas Cowboy shirts. I did a double take. I asked Mom, are they triplets? She said, Yes they are. To which I asked, May I take their picture? to which she said, no. Ouch. Sure seemed fun and harmless. They all seemed like they were in a good mood heading for a lunch or something. I have been really lucky not getting many rejections but was reminded they can be a bit of a setback. Of course there is no telling their situation. For all I know, she kidnapped all 3 or is in the witness protection plan. But doubt it. It could be she is tired of the interest in her kids. I surely believe she had a right to say no and would rather she did then agree begrudgingly. But not sure why she could not have been a bit nicer and say something like, No, thank you. or No, I dont think so, thanks Of course she might have thought I was going to charge her or something as well. But even so, still seems she could have been a bit nicer. I am not really a person that is OK with pestering people. But I sure saw a pretty classic picture right in front of me. Three cute, identical blond 6 years olds in Cowboy jerseys. Maybe she just read Nancy Reagans Just say no! book. Raining pretty hard all the sudden here. Great. As long as it is cold and sloppy lets water the ground.
