He can whisper whisper very soft, very high? What else can Mr. Brown do? (11/27)

A.J. & Buster

Through the back door, with Sir Patrick's sweat shirt in the background and Dad's silver sequined shirt reflected. This is, without rival, the photographer's favorite picture he's ever taken. (11/26)

She's tickling me!

Moi? (11/26)

Grandma and Grandpa

are tired, you know. What on earth might have laid them low? What force of nature could wipe them out so?

Oh. (11/25)

Buster watches Daddy shave

Do I look funny with this white stuff on my face?
Yeah.
It's called shaving cream.
Uh-huh.
I used to watch my dad shave too when I was a little boy. Can you imagine me as a little boy?
Yeah.
You can? What do you think I looked like?
Mustache.

Yes, you sure did.
Hey, I was talking to Daisy.
I know. I was just kinda backing you up.

(10/31)

This was Halloween. There was trick-or-treating shortly after, but it was raining out, so no photos. Buster took a tumble down a set of two or three concrete steps, scraping his knuckles but impressively not dropping a single piece of candy. After a minute or two of crying he was OK and ready to move on. As we started toward the next house, he said, "Daddy, I had an accident." I said, "I know, son, you fell down those -- oh." Kind of a rough trip around the neighborhood, but well worth it. The candy's still holding out.

Bookends

You know how your best friends are. You get together, you kick it. It doesn't change all that much, but somehow it never gets old. Daisy and her friend Cameron Hickert seem to have hit on an activity they both enjoy.

Halloween

Pebbles and Bam-Bam, all grown up. And their punk(in) kid too.

Also, their cow.

Also, A.J., their basketball playing neighbor dog. (10/30)

Oh, right. Like you don't have a basketball playing neighbor dog.

Who ARE these people?

Apron? (10/28)

NOTES
1. I was going for an intellectual look. Professorial. Tweedy. I ended up with Romanian black-market street hustler. You like Britney Spears? I got CD, DVD. Michael Jackson too! You need a watch, buddy?
2. It's gone now.
