Physical Comedy Rules
I *LOVE* this photograph.
Wanna guess what she was so joyous about? Some hints:
It wasn't the prospect of sledding (that had already happened).
It wasn't that I had promised her a pink pony that would poop glitter and naked Barbie dolls.
It wasn't that I admitted I secretly loved the Jonas Brothers and was going to quit my job so we could stalk them full time.
She was THAT joyous moments after her view changed from her dad sledding down the hill to her dad crash landing and rolling down the hill in a crumpled pile of man vs plastic sled vs icy hillside. (He was fine.) (Mostly.)
I only know that's what happened because I could see the reflection in her eyes. I guess maybe I should have offered to help the poor guy instead of standing there taking pictures.
But at least I didn't laugh like she did.

I love the picture and the reason for the smile that reaches her eyes.
The Jonas Brothers hmmm?
Love the picture. The hands on the head say OH NO! But the smile says that's freaking funny do it again daddy! ROFL!!! Great shot! Did you get any of him? hahaha Sorry I think I would have laughed with her.
I love the photo too. And the story. :)
And at least she wasn't yelling "AGAIN, Daddy! AGAIN!" ....wait...or maybe she was. :) The things we do as parents to make our children smile. Hope her laughter at least took some of the sting out of his accidental adventure!
AWESOME SAUCE. Gotta love a kid with a sense of humor. :) My daughter would laugh so hard she'd wet herself. Awesomeness.
That is what daddies are for. Slapstick comedy.
