Oh yes, I'm much like you on this matter. At 12 and 16, my kids aren't a) as willing to pose just for the heck of it b) doing anything around the house that should be documented for posterity. And I spend so little time outside during daylight hours that I don't have the opportunity to find something inspiring to photograph (darn 9-5 job!....wait, I'm luck to have the job, so I take that back). I often find myself gazing longingly at my camera bag. I keep telling myself that warm weather, more daylight hours and some free time are coming. And I have every intention of getting out there and shooting myself silly.
