The kids and I visited this fountain this past weekend, and we all wished we had thought to pack a change of clothes so they could join in the fun. As it was we just got to watch others play for a little while. This is a candid snap of a father introducing his young child to the water. The mother (whom I chatted with briefly) was standing next to me, and that's who the child is looking at off-frame. My only regret is that I didn't get the parents' contact info so I could share this with them. It turned out way sweeter than I might have expected.

Wow...the response to this one has been super encouraging to me. :-) So many great photos in this challenge--several in the 8-10 range for me. Candid emotion and personality is just so powerful. Thanks, everyone, for the fantastic comments!
