Noah’s thing was to run around the park and randomly drop the water balloon, barely slowing down enough to see it break, or to notice the kids kissing on the bench.

Up bright and early, running out to the motor home to wake up Aunt Mindy so we could help her set up for the party.

Aunt Mindy had put together a great “camp” themed birthday party for Noah. No detail overlooked.

A few weeks ago, kicking the soccer ball around a little which turned into “kicking the camera” a little.

Later, meeting up with our ticket dealer in Coney Island before a Brooklyn Cyclones game.

The Cyclones have a new mascot this year, Bucky the Buccaneer, who runs from dugout to dugout when the Cyclones score. When he walked through the stands between innings he saw Jen, his high school english teacher.
