A few pictures from Mother’s Day!

This one I call – ‘Tread Softly and Carry a Big Stick’.
Sam doesn’t quite have the same diplomacy policy as his sister.

I call this one – ‘Wee Warrior’. Strangely enough that is a pelvis from a horse skeleton around his neck, and a rib in his hand. While the girls were happy to peer at the bones and nudge them with their feet; Sam felt a need to wear them. He asked if he could, “wear them to school”. “YA Right SAM!” He’s not quite as evolved as I’d hoped.
I spent Mother’s Day at ‘my’ Grandma’s farm, with my parents, aunt and uncles. After a great dinner, we all took a walk. It was a chilly spring day. It won’t be long now until summer (see the buds just coming out on the trees). I took a whole slew of pictures. Speaking of slough(s) ...

This shot of the slough and the tree I call – ‘Still Water’. I agree I’m not that creative … can you think of a better name?
Finally, my favourite …

A family portrait. I can’t think of a name for this one. Help me out!

Now that Sam isn’t just ‘BIG hair’ with legs, I am enjoying seeing just his face again. I love his smile! When he smiles his whole face smiles, and especially his eyes.

SEE!
Mr. MK’s getting sick of me saying, “just look at that cute face, I forgot about that cute face!”—> so, I am telling you instead.
Stop that! I can hear you groaning …

Sam the Man!

I took this photo of Sam on Saturday, in Canmore along the Bow River. While Mr. MK and Lizzy skied Sam, Georgia and I spent the day throwing rocks, climbing rocks, playing in the park and I managed to sneak in a wee bit of shopping (well window shopping).
Sam is getting a hair cut tonight. The major topic of discussion around the dinner table is—> ‘really short or just a trim?’. Recently a friend of mine, has repeatedly told me, “he could be a girl, that hair … those eyes” or “imagine him with pigtails, he’d be a really pretty girl“. It is really starting to BUG me! Piss off already. The same friend has a girl who is often mistaken for a boy, surely she knows it doesn’t make anyone feel good when you say these kinds of things?
Sam likes the hair (except, when it is being brushed) and says he likes it long. He also doesn’t seem overly concerned to have it cut. I love it! If I could order hair, I would order his. The color is great, it’s thick, it curls, it’s a crime it’s on a boy’s head.
Hmmm … what to do?
Results here tomorrow!
You see that Alpine Breeze blowing through Sam’s hair? You to can have this experience (*wink*) ... ***
