deserted beach - closing the summer of 2010

He's too tired to even take another step. Unless someone wants to challenge him to a race of course.


My cool little dude...


I hope he always finds calm and peace at the beach.




Can we eat him?

Father and son conversation over dinner earlier this evening -

Adam: Aiden, are you angling for a timeout?

Aiden: No, I'm angling for attention.

overcome with love

She's ready to pounce on him like a tiger and then to smother him with kisses. Sometimes she just can't help herself. She grits her teeth as she softly pinches his cheeks and then she kisses his head, hands, belly, legs, and feet. She's totally overcome with love.

gold medal winner

Aiden received a gold medal for completing five book reports.

first day of junior kindergarten

This is Aiden's new classroom located on the second floor of the school. It's a very big deal to be in an "upstairs" classroom because that's where all of the big kid classes are.

That's Aiden looking out of the window instead of reading. He's a dreamer...The window that Aiden dreamingly looking out of looks over the parking lot. For the past two years, Aiden has looked up from the parking lot to spot "big kids in the big kid classroom". Now he's one of those big kids...

Another perk of being a "big kid" is playing in the "big kid playground". Aiden was really looking forward to recess today.


Aiden checking out his new cubby and that's Aiden's favorite teacher in the whole wide world, Ms. Shavani.
