Yesterday was quite a day. Sawyer's first half birthday. I can remember as a kid that the half birthday very closely follows the whole birthday in importance. Six whole months of life. It seems like yesterday in some ways and in others it seems like it was years ago.
We celebrated by me preaching at church yesterday. Well that really wasn't the celebration but it was a good way to start the day. It was a good service. It was also Pentecost. Just such a big day.
And then I woke up this morning and realized that I didn't snap one picture of the day. My memories will have to remain in my head. So I vowed to get some shots today of the kid. I bought him his bathing suit this morning and put him in it and took him outside to the neighbors beautiful (chemical laden, more on that later) lawn and it was a beautiful day...
And so after the photo shoot we went inside and lo and behold the kid had a rash all over his tummy and back. I thought, "oh, perhaps he is allergic to grass, darn, oh well." Until my arms started to BURN. Like really burn. What the heck? So, I immediately got us into the shower and washed all the chemicals off our skin. Stupid people and their stupid chemicals. But they sure do have a beautiful lawn. Dang that I can't take advantage of it more. :(.
Please excuse the shadows on him. These were taken at about 2 when the sun is too high for good pictures. I was going to try to do more later but as you guessed it I can't go back on the lawn. Dang it!
