“No, it's just my CLA membership renewal, son.” (Just kidding – it's actually the address insert from the latest Feliciter. And hey, at least I didn't give him the shrink wrap to play with!)
You hear it from everybody but there's still no way to prepare for how quickly the time flies. Six months already. Wow. (Full disclosure – the picture on the right is from his THREE month birthday. I don't have a current version of this shot but will get one next weekend.) Latest milestone – […]
