I know a lot of funny people. Really, I do. But I will have to say that Michael, at four and a half (have to add the half or I’ll get yelled at) is on my list of the world’s funniest people. Daddy got up very early (way earlier than I would ever get up for ummm…anything) and went golfing. Michael and I got to sleep in (7:00!). I realized that Daddy forgot to transfer Michael’s booster to my car so all hopes of a Target run to get the new Darth Vader transformer and cupcake mix were out the window. So Michael and I decided to go for a long walk this morning. We walked to the park where apparently there was a giant sea monster that had engulfed me 182 times. I didn’t not see said sea monster, but Mikey assured me he was there and that he had in fact eaten me and spit me out over a “hundred million” times. Michael then found a juice box on the ground and said, “Oh mannnnn…someone glittered and I don’t like glittering.” So he picked it up and put it in the garbage. I told him that his act was a very nice thing to do and that he was helping to keep the earth clean. This comment, in turn started a complete obsession with “glittering.” After the park we walked to Starbucks to grab our morning treats and Michael pointed out every single piece of trash he could find (with a lightsaber mind you. Did I mention that he made me carry a lightsaber and battle him the whooolle way there and back. The stares from everyone driving by were lovely.) So, when we were finally a block away from Starbucks and Michael had seen all of the “glittering” he could handle, he turned to me and said, “I gotta tell ya…I hate glittering. I’m getting madder and madder when I see more glitter. I hope Daddy is havin’ a better morning than we are.” Apparently the “glitter” had turned his world upside down. We have a new “Go Green” machine on our hands and I gotta say I’m likin’ it!
And his pictures…he got new aviators just like Daddy and he loves them almost as much as his fedora which did not come off today either. The tree pics were a happy mistake. I turned around and Michael had sat down by the most gorgeous tree with the most gorgeous light. A giddy girl I was!
Much love,

If this was my photo/son I'd have to blow it up super big and hang it in a spot where I'd look at it every day. It's just gorgeous!
