The adventures of little boy Finn

Pics o’ the Day: Finny after school

Daddy picked up Finny from his pre-school, & he asked Daddy about taking him to Turtle Park. So that’s where we went! We climbed on things, & walked on things, & Daddy put Finny into the mouth of a turtle.

After the park, we went home. It was such a lovely day that Daddy suggested we eat lunch on the front porch. We had a great time eating together.

Finn sings Old McDonald

Three-year-old me serenades Mama & Gabe at breakfast with his own enthusiastic version of Old McDonald.

Nocturnal

Gabe, in car tonight: “Squirrel!”

Mama: “Huh? Where’s a squirrel?”

Gabe: “Up your butt.”

Mama: “Gabriel!”

Finn: “Actually, up in a tree.”

Me: “You’re right. Probably sleeping by now.”

Gabe: “What? Aren’t squirrels nocturnal?”

Mama: “No.”

Me: “No.”

Gabe: “Finn! You don’t even know what nocturnal means.”

Me (thinks): “But owls are nocturnal.”

Ra-Ra asked me what I would name a pet rat if I got one, & I thought for a moment & then said “Daddy!”
