A New Day...

has dawned for this little man.
He is living the life.
This was his expression when the answer was "Yes"
to his request for pop corn AND ice cream for lunch.
~~~~~

~~~
yes, that's the look of shock!
When two of your siblings are now gone everyday of the week,
and your closest sibling, who is your buddy, is now gone on
Mondays & Thursdays,
well, lets just say....
the world is your oyster..
or should I say popcorn and peanuts!
~~~

~~~
What kind of lunch is that for a kid?!!!
Someone call his parents!
~~~

~~~
Yes, he was still smiling in disbelief as he ate til his little heart was content
~~~

~~~~~


~~~
He was eating by handfuls at a time...
~~~


~~~~~


~~~
Cookies & Cream
his flavor of choice...
through the fuzziness
do you notice that little mischievous
looking guy in the background?
~~~

~~~
He kept that look on his face for a while..
He really thought he was getting away with something!
`~~~

~~~
His expression suddenly turned serious
when he saw our black Durango coming down the road.
I think he thought it was the gang returning to spoil his fun.
~~~

~~~
However, it was only Daddy returning from his errand...
so the fun continued(s)!
~~~
WE NOW INTERRUPT THIS BLOG POST
WITH A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT
.......
This is to inform you that this child was not harmed during
the taking of these photos.
He was given a "REAL" lunch afterwards!
~~~
Sometimes it's nice to just break the norm with our kids.
Now that most of mine are out of the house during the week,
I realize I have just one little one left at home.
Sometimes the smallest rules, like this one, can be broken,
After all, you're only a kid once!

  1. I love it!! The first picture, the look is priceless. I agree, you are only a kid once (or twice) doesn't hurt a thing to break the rules a litle sometimes.
