Hero Worship

Every child needs a hero. And if it is Mommy or Daddy, it is really cool. Aidan's hero is his Daddy.

Daddy drives a Bucket Truck and Aidan thinks that is about the coolest job in the world. He informs everyone he meets that "My Dad drives a Bucket Truck and I'm going to too when I get long legs like him!" He even draws pictures of Bucket Trucks at school, totally amazing his teachers:



A colorful option that shows Daddy with the long legs and googgly eyes in the cab and Aidan with the short legs in the bucket.



And another one with a man standing sideways with a great big head, no body, long legs with feet and arms with fingers. . .he is the sign guy you see on the road. . .

Yes, Big Boy Aidan, Mommy thinks Daddy is a great hero. In fact, he's mine too! He even replaced the camera I lost at the Russian Embassy with a new one I can take anywhere in my purse!!

And now for a couple of pictures from this weekend at the pool:




I think we must be getting ready for a major growth spurt. . .for the past three mornings, Aidan has polished off 3, yes THREE, bowls of cereal along with a huge glass of milk. . .wonder what my food bill will be in a few years??? : )
