Today's Toby

Books and brothers. And a few stuffies, pillows, and blankets.   

When in doubt, follow Toby.  

When you are truly devoted to having your pillow with you as much as possible...  

Happy to be done with school for the day.  

While the paint was mixing, Toby was diligently putting back sample cards that were out of place.    

We went to the town Arts and Eco fair today and got to see Toby's artwork hanging.  His class did pictures with a set of four emoji. Toby's is over his left shoulder with the green background. Here he is recreating all four.  

Playing "mini hockey" with Dad. (There is actually a puck, but it's not visible here.)  

When double scooters makes you half as fast.  

Sneaking. A story in three GIFs.  

Devotion is dragging your stuff downstairs every morning and back upstairs every night.  

He's still got a soft spot for flags, especially if 2 of his top 3 are involved.  

Full of love for mom on Mother's Day.

Sometime the book is so good that you have to stom mom and Spencer on the steps to read it aloud to them. Life's pretty great when you have a mom who can appreciate the silliest things. Happy Mother's Day to Cotton and to all the other mom's, especially our mom's, Bahiya, Rabi, amd Jessie.  We love you all!  

 Toby and his class had a field trip to Sandy Hook beach/bay/lighthouse. Thankfully, they had great weather for it. Toby and his friend Hudson on the bus. (They were all supposed to wear red.) The whole class.

Ready for his field trip!  

Tall enough to reach the water dispenser in the fridge - which is both crazy and mundane.  

Every now and again, if I'm sneaky, I can catch a real smile.  

Celebrating Star Wars Day.  

Time to recharge for a school week after a fun weekend.  

Enjoying reading some Exploding Kittens cards is a great way to start the weekend.  

Searching high and low. Someday he'll skip the scavenger hunt at the library, but for now it's still a big hit.
