Wait and See

Today I did it all. I wrote the query letters, found the addressed envelopes, checked all the addresses, stood in line at the post office and sent off the photos of Baby Q. Now we wait several weeks to see if anyone wants to represent him.

When J was a baby I went to a Mommy and Me luncheon about baby modeling and met an agent there. We spoke and she told me to send in his photos. I did and it was a done deal. We were sent on several "go-sees" which were more like cattle calls. After waiting for hours they would call our name and it J would be uncooperative. Still I went.

J was in a "music video" on Sesame Street, which we "booked" through the same Mommy and Me group. We also taped a few news reports where they needed babies. We had pictures done for free by a photographer who needed pictures for his portfolio. Those pictures were later sent by a friend to Ford Models who had us come in to meet with them.

In the end though J had sensory issues that made modeling all but impossible and I finally needed to go back to work. It was great fun for a while though.

For now though with Baby Q all we can do is wait and see. And enjoy the summer!
