An Umbrella in August??

Dad just brought home a new umbrella he says is for Mom. This is California, it's not raining, especially not in August, so I had to ask him to explain it to me.

He said it's a professional studio lighting umbrella kit so that Mom can take better non-flash photos of us. She won't need to use it on me because I don't blink or squint with the flash, but I'll let her entertain herself anyway. All this work for photos and she doesn't even get paid for it!

I gotta go help Dad set it up.

Love,
Riley
