Small Packages

I just can't take it anymore. This is my baby. My angel...certainly not my favorite but the last of the Cole boys. As my "not favorite" he has tugged at my heart strings from the very beginning. He was so sweet but even the sweetest boy has his own personality. He has always been obsessed with guns. He LOVES weapons of any kind. He even eats his pop tarts into the shape of PP7, 007's gun (apparently, I don't watch that show).
(You lookin'at me? You talkin' ta me?) that's his Scarface impression...not that he's ever seen that movie.
I mean, come on! Even when he was 2yrs old he was obsessed with all things military. GI Joe was his hero. He couldn't stop staring at his Dad when he was in his flight suit. Khaki Green was his favorite color. I have a sneakin suspicion that the military will be in this boy's future.
But I"ll not linger on thoughts of him as a soldier. I'll just enjoy today when he's like many other 13 yr old boys in America. Dreaming of being a sports star. It's ok baby...You can do whatever you want in your life. (inside I'm terrified that every bone in his scrumptious little body will be pulverized on Thursday...FULL CONTACT DAY!!) I have a special bottle of Pinot Grigio for Thursday. Seriously though the boy only weighs like 85lbs. He's the smallest on the team...but he's the fastest and most determined as well. He's earning the respect of his peers. Well...not if they read this blogspot!
Now on to more perplexing subjects. What the hell is going on with these kids? Every picture below they are doing the same thing. I mean seriously do you have to check your package every 10min?
Are you kidding me? I don't know maybe I'm making a mountain out of a molehill....Boys will be boys I guess.
I'm learning ALOT about boys these days...not little boys but teenage boys. They are menacing too! I love it, mostly. Sometimes though I cringe...I'm gonna need botox sooner than expected I suspect!
We love and miss you Jeff.
