It’s always a good time at Santa Monica Pier, with lots of adventures, activity and emotion! Take Miss Sticky Miller here… she’s my good friend’s daughter and my favorite 4 yr old on the planet. I adore her little voice and her phenomenal personality — she’s such a ray of positive energy, friendly to everyone, and quite the cutie :)
She was so excited to take a day off of school yesterday and go to the Pier… where she knows you can cradle exotic animals…
…Act like a true NYC cab driver…
…chase some pigeons along the boardwalk… and have a really good time! Until….
…you have to share your bag of sweeties with your mum…
…it’s okay – you can wipe it on there…
…but I know something that will cheer you up!
…and pretty soon you’ll be swinging that bag around, pointing fingers at people, and earning the name “Sticky Miller” …
…you’ll even start dancing to a beat belted out by plastic buckets… lol! and you’ll dance like no-one’s watching :)
I adore this little girl!… and all her up/down/silly/around moments between this…
…and this!
Stay tuned for Sticky Miller’s second half of the day, involving red balloons and a red dress – two of my favorite things!
xoxo,

Superb set as always. I really really like the “Drama Queen” shot. Her expression is priceless.
