Des knows what things are sharp. Today her learned what the implication was of something being sharp. In a split second he had picked up the wood chisel dad was using on the door and got a tiny cut on the thumb. We then learned about blood, washing, neosporin and bandaids. Here he is modeling is new “ban-ay.”

Tonight and tomorrow night, a supermoon is scheduled to come within 221,524 miles of the earth. This is the closest it’s been since 1948 and will be until November 25th, 2034… when Desmond is 20 years old!

A new found fascination with turtles
After nap time, it was time to cool off poolside. This is about as far in as he ventured though (dad needs to preheat it out in the sun for a bit next time)
“Sharing” an apple with mom
Running over to greet grandma

Only mixed feelings and occasional interest in the tricycle
After the neighbor girl demonstrated proper wheelbarrow usage, Des is dutifully relocating rocks from one portion of the yard to the next, en masse

Apparently snacks > soccer
Beating block stacking PRs, though still just to knock em all down

While dad is weeding and prepping the garden beds, Des is all too eager to lend a helping hand.
Am I doing this right?
