Sunday Snap!

Here is a photo of my grandson, Elijah (Eli) on his first birthday in June 2009.  He loves strawberries, but he was just so tired after all the excitement that he fell asleep whilst still eating one!

That picture is so funny and sweet. Eli is gorgeous. What a nice way to fall into dreamland with the taste of strawberries in your mouth. Pure contentment:)

kneesandpaws - that was a lovely way to put it, about falling into dreamland with the taste of strawberries! Hee hee!

LindyLouMac - I just thought it was such a cute photo, and he is very blonde. My daughter was like that until she was about 8 or 9 and now she is quite Spanish looking, with very dark hair!!

lyndylou - couldn't you just eat him!!!

Eli is a handsome young man, Thisisme, and I can relate to his experience. Yours truly fell asleep last night while eating a Prune Danish! (LOL) Have a sensational Sunday, dear Thisisme!

Shady - LOL! Somehow I don't quite believe you!!

Wouldn't it be nice to be that relaxed again? Although I don't remember being that relaxed at the time - it sure looks like fun.
