Happy Father's Day Speedo!

I have lots of pictures of the children with their dad, and a lot of favorites on several computers and on film. So many. This is one I came across rcently from last summer. We were sitting on our front porch in the throws of summer and an enormous storm passed through with heavy rain and gusts of wind! Our porch is one of our favorite places to be all year round - it's busy on the road, people running, walking and biking by, and the cars - great place to sit and daydream and people gawk. We all headed out to the porch this night because it was so hot in the house - I'm not a huge fan of air conditioning - and the wind felt so good blowing through the porch. Thunder was rumbling in the distance and the lightening could be seen, but not close enough for us to have to take shelter inside. The rain pooled yellowish green on the porch floor from all the pollen. A typical summer night ending with a thunder boomer.

Tucker found comfort in his Daddy's lap - one of his favorite places to be. Everything is less frightening on his lap, less powerful, less intimidating. The storm was easier to absorb knowing he was safe. I love how Speedo is agknowledging Tuck's presence with the slight gesture of a simple head sniff. ♥
