Conservative Papa

Here is a recent picture of Andrew taken on 9/11/2004. Mama gave him a funny hair do in the bathtub.

The other night, Andrew and I went out to the garage so that Mama could concentrate on her homework. Andrew stayed in his play pen while I puttered around. It was a bonding experience. Perhaps as the summer heat gives way to mild fall evenings, Andrew can keep me company more often.

While out in the garage, Andrew dropped toys over the side of his play pen. The concept of gravity holds a strong attraction for him. However, when the play pen is outside or in the garage, we keep mosquito netting over the top. The toys he dropped got caught between the mosquito netting and the mesh sides of the play pen. Somehow, the toys held much greater fascination when they were suspended between the mesh and netting. They were within his reach but beyond his grasp!
