Hi Ho... Hi Ho...

It's off to school he goes!!

And I haul out the camera to capture the memory. The smile and the sweet pose and the magical moment preserved forever...

(Imagine a loud screeching of brakes.) But noooooooooo. I forgot. This is the boy I'm talking about here. The one who HATES getting his picture made. The one who... if you recall... says that hell is just people taking your picture all day. I wonder if the devil uses digital or SLR?

"Smile, honey! It's your first day of 4th grade!"

"No, silly! OPEN your eyes more! You look tired!"



"OK. Now you look scared. Not that wide."

"Stop laughing at me so I can get a good shot!"


"Well, fine then... be that way."


Happy School Days folks!

I am glad to see that some things just do not change even while I am away in Afghanistan. I do not know where he got that picture hating!
