Our G loves being outside, often pretending he's on an adventure to save an endangered specie. Though he's often distracted by cool spiders and other creepy crawlies that he sees in the backyard. He's been known to come into the house with the biggest worm you've ever seen dangling from his muddy fingers: " Mom, LOOK!"
He's fascinated by interesting leaves, sticks, dead bugs and rocks, which he now collects and stores in an overflowing box in his room.
And his biggest temper tantrum to date was when we wouldn't let him bring home the skeleton of a small animal that he found on a local trail "But Dad, it's my first discovery!" he wailed. "It's a fossil, I need it!"
We love our G and his love of the natural world, his curiosity about creatures big and small, and his fearless and adventurous spirit.
