I was invited to a birthday party for this little boy, he was turning 4. He spotted my gift and would not put it down, he dragged it around for over an hour. When he had worn himself out, he fell asleep on the couch, but still did not turn loose of the gift. He is my new favorite subject.

Such restraint! When I was four I would have torn into that right away.

He is soooo cute. I love it when little kids just plop down and go to sleep. Good work.

He is adorable. Four year olds sure are strong willed and stubborn once they have their minds set on something. I know our daughter is that way. Great capture on a timeless moment that I am sure the parents will treasure for a long time.

How sweet - beautifully captured.

The anticipation of what might be in the box is probably more precious than the gift itself. How cool is that!
