This photo was snapped about eight and a half years ago and is one of my favourite shots of Apollo. He was three and always happy to play outside with his Nana. Actually, he is still happy to come play with his Nana, with a camera in his hand. LOL

I almost used this shot a couple of times with text along the top for a fall themed photo but it just didn’t feel right. I mean, I think this would be safe to use. It doesn’t show his face but at the time it didn’t seem safe. What are your thoughts about sharing photos of your kids and safety? Everyone seems to do it with no worries. Am I too overprotective?

Here’s another shot from that day. It’s a little blurry and the reflections on the glasses are rather distracting but look at that face! I could be a little biased.

Take a good look at his coat! I loved this coat because it had schematics all over it. Well it had traces anyway. LOL! My husband started showing Apollo basic schematic symbols just around this time because of his coat. Man kids are like sponges… they just slurp up the knowledge.

It was around this time that Apollo started learning how to beat box. He was born with Stickler’s Syndrome, a connective tissue disorder, so his Mom, @dezziq has always encouraged any interests which don’t include strenuous activity such as contact sports.

Apollo is now 11 and I think he’s an awesome beat boxer. A while back he very confidently performed when he opened for a group called Dead Celebrity Status at a local venue. (I can’t find my pics from that night but I’ll keep looking through my drives until I find them then I’ll share!)

I’m going to church with the boys tomorrow….. yes…..I said it…church. If you know me then you know this is not a common Sunday morning routine for me but tomorrow is special. Who knows what shenanigans we will get up to.

How did I get way over here from there? Is this what a “free write” is? LOL!! Thanks for reading.

Until next time friends…
