Walker Turns SIX!!!

Walker on the morning of his big day. He's not intentionally channeling Malcolm McDowell's character from A Clockwork Orange, he's just very very happy to viddy his Da so early on the Birthday in question.

Walker waits while Mom cooks him a healthy birthday breakfast. That's Oliver, size 12, behind him, about to eat the table for a snack.


Dad to the rescue! Birthday breakfast of chocolate bar, chocolate egg, and Pringles, served on the coveted "You Are Special Today" red plate. Can I get you anything else, son? In case you're grandma reading this, that's a peach-flavored yoghurt drink for his beverage, so it wasn't, ahem... all bad. And okay, to be fair, he did eat his cardboard-bran-flake-health-nut cereal first, before he lost the rest of his teeth on the chocolate.


Walker and Mom gloat over his peanut-butter-frosting-double-chocolate-death-love-sugar-bomb birthday cake, eaten at his party that we celebrated a few nights later with students from Intercultural Communication at a fondue party. Picture credit to Franklin College student Katie Cicerchi.
