Homework?? I'm Moving OUT!

After a frustrating afternoon of being FORCED to do homework before playing, and lots of pouting, and whining, and GRIPING, he was finally released into the wilds of the backyard.

On his way out the door, he announced, "MOM! I'M MOVING OUT! I'm moving into the backyard into my OWN cardboard house!!!"

Oh, he had the look of an (almost) 8 year old with PLANS. He wasn't going to live with an annoying mother who is on his case to do HOMEWORK! He's too OLD for that kind of treatment, you know!

Mom let him be alone for a few minutes (ok, she was searching for the camera)



He doesn't hear me until this pic....

What do YOU want??


Who me? Nothing, honey. I'm just taking pictures for the missing person's ad.

How's it goin?

Don't smile. Whatever you do, don't smile.
