trying to find that perfect family portrait

 

 

It is not easy to get the smallest princess to cooperate ... Little Princess Maria Christina of the Netherlands is the focus of her father's attention ... but she won't stay still for the camera.  Even little princesses go through the terrible twos -- and Marijke was two years old when  these photos were taken!

I was looking through one of my Dutch royal postcard albums, and noticed this three postcards  - taken on July 7, 1949.
