Flashback Friday - I'm as pretty as Pluto!

I haven't posted a lot about my son Adam, as he HATES the attention. But I came across some of these and it just gave this mom warm and fuzzy feelings. So this flashback, I take you back to the days when my son would gladly introduce himself to you with a - "Hi, I 'm Adam - but not the Adam from the bible."

 

Here's Adam in glasses....well sorta

Oui, Oui, Monsieur! C'est magnifique!

 

On his way to ride the park train...Norman Rockwell, eat your heart out.

 

Foaming bath soap only lasted for one bath in our house. This would be why.

Adam loves maps and is leading the way. I am realizing just now, that he didn't have the best view here.

Here Adam decided his face was an excellent palate for crayola stamp-marker. (Much better than the permanent black marker he once decorated the wallpaper and carpet with.)

I love things like this. Adam's answers were always among the most unique, which was an endearing quality to me. (in case you can't read it - I am as pretty as flowers, space and Pluto (which still hold planetary status in our home, Kuiper Shmiper belt...BAH!)

But there is nothing better than going to kindergarten open house and seeing on the wall (where the people are crowded around and giggling) that your son considers you to be VERY ASYMMETRICAL (see circles)

 

Adam is the most wonderful and loving son I could have hoped for. He brings me so much joy. I hope he doesn't mind mom indulging by posting about him.  Happy Flashback Friday!

I so remember him with the maps at Disneyland! He would walk ahead, knowing exactly where he wanted to go, while his sister and cousin were busy looking for Belle or Snow White or Minnie Mouse.

Try as I might, I cannot find a one-liner that's any better than the picture itself. That's funny!

What a cute collection of pictures of your son! They grow fast, don't they?

I love the family portrait! It's funny what kids pick up on :)

Thanks for stopping by my blog! I, too, am a very visual learner. It's funny that I didn't even realize it until I started homeschooling and researching different learning styles. Hmmmmm.

Take care - oh, and that story about the child with Aspbergers made me sick to my stomach. How terrible!!

That's a great picture. I have a similar booby picture that K drew hanging in the kitchen. I think it's hysterical! Lucky Mom!

About Me

Refined by Fire ~ Some days make you want to throw in the towel, and other days make you want to burn the towel with acetylene gas and a blowtorch. I am finding that my rediscovered faith (unchurched) forces me to hang the towel back up on the rack each day, because other people rely on it to be there...even if it's a little crooked. We are Libertarian family in California. ********************************************************* Y'ALL COME BACK NOW YA HEAH! Photobucket Photobucket
