My boy....who can come up with bright ideas faster than you can blink, one right after the other.
Of course after making the above comment to him he came back with this get up so that we can see
his "bright ideas." We get more laughs per day with his quick thinking process and wit, but if I don't pay attention they slip by so quickly. As we were driving down the freeway he said, "Look at that hippy vehicle in the next lane." Growing up in the sixties I'm looking for a VW bus with decals, but oh no, it was a dual wheel pickup with the wide back girth! He pays attention to everything around him, and what an example to not let the world just fly past. There are too many roses to smell and admire along the way, and quick humor to laugh and throw back and forth to each other while we are speeding along life's highway.

This little one is getting older on us, plus six teeth to show off! And.....ta da.....she's coming through town today to see us, for a brief few minutes before going on up the road to play with cousins and other fun kids! I'll take all the hugs and kisses and blowing raspberries that I can get no matter how quick, it's worth every second of pure joy and bliss seeing this little pumpkin! Her parents thrill me to no end to realize the responsibility they have raising such a special little spirit and taking that responsibility seriously while enjoying being parents at the same time:)

We love books in every way, although this use of books for a headboard did make me grimace at first until I remember there are lots of books at the thrift stores which have great covers and lack of good taste innards. What a fun project this would be to surprise a child for a school promotion or simply good grades! We have seen book shelves made from book covers and know this...the possibilities are endless.
