Liam trying to be the little actor/model.

Liam is such a pip!  

He's always wanting to have his picture taken and or asking if I'd record him doing something.  Liam spends every free moment watching so much YouTube, and at first, I thought it was a waste of time, but I ended up changing my mind. Surprisingly he has learned a great deal from watching videos.   Being only eight years old he's learned a lot from Minecraft and Roblox videos. It amazes me what he learns from intently watching videos.  Liam is wanting to try and start programming in Minecraft, and I am all for that and out of my three he's probably the one that's the most like me... my techie child.  

Last summer in Asheville, North Carolina we was visiting my sister Carmen and she has quite the potted garden on the side of the mountain she lives on.  Liam was all into smelling her flowers and paying them a great deal of attention wanting to learn about them.  Liam decided he wanted his pictures taken while smelling the flowers and after every image, he tried to look at them.  Most of them you can tell they are posed but they are so cute.  I wasn't going to do much with them at first but after awhile I forgot about them until the other day he mentioned them to me.  Since bringing them up I decided to make a collage and show them off.  Liam has no shame in his game and he's rather proud of having people see him admiring flowers.

My silly little brother is always wanting to be the centre​ of attentio​​n!

I will agree that Liam can be a bit silly but in a good way!

Little dude is fantastic at everything he does! Excellent​ picture of Liam!

Thanks for ​the comments on Liam he really appreciates​ hearing them!

Enjoy the time when he wants his picture taken. All too soon it becomes, "Mom, stop that. Put the camera away." Well, that's what I started saying. Ha ha. Now she can get a picture or two if she wants, but it took a while for me to stop being "cool" and just chill with my mom.

@themanwithnoname, sounds like you know kids rather well. I have a 19 and 14-year-old​ and I know the phase you're speaking of I've already been there and done that. I am happy for the time being that Liam hasn't started being like that yet. I miss my 19 years​ old the most he​ was the perfect​ child made just for me. We got along, close and he was always very proud of me. My daughter hasn't been like that, and I often feel like I don't know if we are at odds or if we're getting along. But yeah it seems like yesterday for each of them... ​

As kids grow up and have the need to assert themselves, they don't like being controlled. If you're around, but not in their space too much, eventually they normally will let you in...a bit. :)
