 My little boy at his most precious! I was spending an idyllic hour reading junk fiction on my front porch and my hawks came back. They were screeching a storm up. Of course my camera was in the house! Foiled again! So I brought my camera out in case they came back, and my son came out playing with his Lego's. I caught this out of the corner of my eye and snapped. Dirt smudged cheeks, squinty eye, pursed lips making flying sounds, imagination flying. The hawks can wait.

Without reading your notes, my first thought was "this is a boy truly being a boy." So you caught the moment perfectly!! Definitely a keeper, this one. (Both the kid and the picture.)

You see him do something like this everyday and rely on your memory to hold it for you. Unless you have a camera!! A treasure to keep :)

These are the snapshots to keep. I love these caught moments of children in their own worlds. I just sit here looking at your boy and wonder what exactly it is he is seeing and thinking. Wonderful.

Let me guess. . . the flying car is going to crash! Can't help but play with Leggos even at 66! Grand kids make it legit.
