My wife and I had a discussion about what to name this post. She thought Handsomest Boy Ever–while true, I thought it a bit over the top. My son turned six recently and the event really took me back. In my mind, there may be no age more wonderful. The power of a six year-old mind to create new worlds and travel vast distances is unrivaled.
I love being a witness to my son’s imagination. He gets a look in his eye much like this one and I know he’s embarking on a great adventure. Here my son had been playing with his sister when he took a short break and slipped into this pensive pose. In his hands the two treasures he’d found during play: a stick and a couple little flowers. It’s a great recipe really; take two little flowers, add infinite imagination and stir with a stick–it’s delightful every time.
