Who Is Carson?

The other night I was reading Curious George to the kids. During the story I had a

Ah ha moment. In the story George ends up getting in trouble for his curiousity. He gets

trapped by the man in the yellow hat because he was interested in the hat while in Africa.

Then later he gets put in jail for playing with the phone and accidently calling 911. It occured to me that Carson is my Curious George. He never gets in trouble for being mean or rude or throwing fits, instead he gets in trouble for making a mess when his "experiment goes a-wall. Im telling you this kid is thinking of things he could do all day long. His latest idea is finding miscellaneous stuff in the garage and putting it behind the car tires and listening for it to
"crunch" as I back up. For example: a rotten peach that was in the trash, empty water bottles,

and a clothespin. Arrgghhhh!! The every day dealing of Carson's curiousity. In these pictures it's just a random afternoon at home and this is what I find him doing outside. He figured out that the electrical conduit for the garden trellises would fit perfect in the hose. Then it could drain into a bucket and fill up. Perfect for him to sit and cool off in 90 degree weather!

In honor of Carson starting Kindergarten at age 51/2 I wanted to describe who he

is and what he loves at this age. I will never forget my first child going of to school.

That phrase just has a beautiful ring to it, doesn't it?
