And now it's May again and BEA is right around the corner and I emerge from my recent and nasty reading slump stupor to find a copy of Linger sitting in my mailbox like a glove thrown down in the dirt. "I will be the one to pull you out," it whispers to me slyly. "Just open me up and take a sip. I promise--one sip is all it will take." And I look at it with fear and longing written all over my face. "You promise?" I ask intently. "Because it's been a long walk in the cold and I'm not sure I can take another disappointment." "Just open me up," it says, confidence written all over its cover. And so I do. And everythin
Oh my lord, this is adorable! I hope you had a great halloween (with not TOO much candy ;p )

ReplyDeleteSo freaking cute. This picture is adorable. I love how strawberry is gnawing on soldier's hand. :p
ReplyDeleteLol. Thanks, guys. A lovely friend of mine made the strawberry hat for me when Will was born and I have always loved it.
ReplyDeleteOh man, WAY too cute!
ReplyDeleteWill even has that soldier aura about him, with the leg slung over the arm of the chair and the contemplative look in his eyes. And the little strawberry is too cute for words!
ReplyDeleteWhat a completely adorable strawberry hat!
ReplyDeleteGrin. Yeah, he was very into his role.
ReplyDeleteAhhhhh, you make beautiful children. My dad and I looked at a bunch of pics on Aaron's blog. Piper is too pretty for words and getting big. Love the costumes!
