My nephew is the sweetest boy ever; I simply adore him!

Very small children are such little characters, and my nephew is no different. The photos above show his 2nd birthday party where he is sung the Happy Birthday song and is expected to blow out the candles, but is unsure of both the fuss and exactly what he is supposed to do…until you can see it between photo 3 and 4 where it apparently “clicks” and the this little guy not only gets it, but gets right into it!

The same uniqueness is evident in the way he does something as prosaic as how he eats a slice of pizza, a sandwich or, in this case, toast. Not content to eat it from a corner, or even a side, the little monkey insists on eating it FROM THE TOP DOWN. Watching him eat a piece of toast covered in peanut butter at brunch yesterday was a study in how to stifle giggles while eating one’s food, especially when one restaurant patron walked past, looked at my nephew nomming his pb toast, and blithely quipped, “Movember?”

How could you not love a silly monkey like this?

Rock on, little dude, rock on. ❤ ❤ ❤
