Getting His Kicks



I always watch as The Boy waits for the school bus in the morning in front of our home. Some days he just stands there. Sometimes he'll play with fallen sticks, or leaves, or the pretty keys from the maple tree overhead. Sometimes he'll sing to himself softly. Or loudly (as is his want). On this particular morning he felt disposed to practice his high kick.

First, the wind-up...


And.... BAM!

I think the goal was to get the foot above the head.


Success is sweet, isn't it?

Have  yourself a high-kicking kind of week-end.

  7. Michelle,

    He did a fine job.
    I have a grandson, that goes through life singing all the time, he makes people smile wherever he goes. It's wonderful the way that they can entertain themselves.
    Thank you for sharing your little ones pictures, he is so cute.

    1. He loves being featured on the blog... He loves me to read him all the comments. I don't want to show too much of him. I like him to have his privacy. But every now and then, I don't mind showing a small glimpse. :) Thanks Olly!
