Just Like Santa!

So, I was innocently taking pictures of Mr. with the children on a recent trip to the apple orchard, when a curious onlooker approached. He watched the picture-taking, and then stepped right up to take his turn.

"I want a picture."

"With me?"

"Yeah."

"Uh . . . . OK."

He sat down, I snapped away, and he scampered off toward the play equipment. And was never heard from again. At least we have the picture and the memories.

what a crazy kid! i hope he was just a kid being a kid and not a poor lonely soul trying to deal with parental estrangement. in any case, i have no doubts that joel gave him the emotional/psychological boost he needed.
