Making introductions (and the thing that makes me laugh every time)

This is my husband, Jason (and The Game of Life in Caribou Coffee... meet our 2 new children)

***

I came across the following pictures on my camera today. I've kept them for a year because they make me laugh each time I see them flash across my camera screen.

First, take note of the sizable icicle in the left hand corner of the photo. Walking out this day, I pointed it out.

He says, "I bet I could kick it."

"What?! Kick it?" I said. Struck by the oddness of his thought. I mean who sees something hanging from an overhang and their first thought is that they may be able to kick it?

And so I laughed... (at him)


He began to kick.

And kick.

I laughed.
And Laughed...
...nearly losing control.



And he kicked until he kicked the icicle down. (You can see from his face that he was going to. Notice the fierce determination. With his other foot barely on the ground, he managed an amazing feat of flexibility to my delight.

I was happy to capture such a moment. Not that a full 3-4 minutes makes it difficult to, but with the doubling over laughing and all..

..."I can't believe you doubted me!"


Persistence. Reason number 7 why I love my husband.
