You and your husband, Thierry, are arranging a small birthday party for Brian, your oldest son, who turned four today.

"How about we take a family photo?"

You prepare the camera for an automatic portrait, activating it with a 5-second delay. Thierry promptly envelops you with his arms, ready for the snapshot.

"Say, cheese," in his deep and tender voice, Thierry smiles, reveals his teeth to the camera.

"Wait, wait, I'm not ready, Mommy!"

Brian rushes over, embracing you on the side and positioning you between him and his father. Then, the final surprise unfolds. Your 13-month-old son takes tiny steps and fell on your lap, coinciding with kisses from Thierry and Brian on your right and left cheeks.

"Cheese!"

The snapshot immortalizes the essence of your small family.
