August 1st, 2008: What Summer's All About

monster · 07-31-2008, 09:24 PM

I took my son to the library to choose his prize (a book) for completing the library's summer reading program. I took him from the pool and returned him to the pool. We were in the library 10 minutes. Would have been 5, if fewer people had stopped me and told me how cool it was to see a kid who so clearly loved the pool and/or was Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes. They enjoyed him so much, I thought you might too....

Aw yes, animal Friday!

I hope he doesn't ride his wagon down hills, off cliffs...

That is an absolutely amazing capture. The expression, the hair, the fact that he was willing to hold still in such a pose...it's all perfect!

Thanks for sharing!

Ritalin?

LOL!!!

That is one expressive kid. You could serve me a bucket of KFC with Matt Damon in the middle and I couldn't get that excited look on my face. Very cool.

Why is his hair not blue?

Great picture, monster. Made my morning. The pictures you show of your family look like y'all are always having so much fun!
