Happy belated birthday

One of the tadpoles grew up, among other things.

At the lagoons

Plants, children

Clover

More clover

Pineappleweed, a.k.a. wild chamomile, a.k.a. disc mayweed

Greetings from the baby swings

Adding to the stick collection

Stand up!

(Sit down.)

Tadpoles.

In case you ever wished you could see a tadpole up close and personal.  Shazam!

Theo's favorite shirt-- the lightning bolts make him run fast.  (Thanks Min!)

Belated birthday post

These are from the day before Theo's birthday, when he celebrated with some of his friends.  If I'd taken more pictures you might have seen the finished art projects, candles that didn't light, Theo grinning during the birthday song, handprints in the cake's frosting; but here you can at least see a lovely day, kids painting, the birthday boy between tantrums, and if you look closely, the remains of a banana that was mashed with much wonder and delight.
