Asher Pictures: Page 16- 2010
"Love him, and let him love you. Do you think anything else under heaven really matters?" - James Baldwin

Late February & March 2010 - Asher lounging in the front door sun, They don't make pants the way they used to- now they are a hat, watching (ugh) Mario in full dress, making Mario out of playdough (all by himself), and goggles for the tub- but he decided that dinnertime was a great place to wear them. |

Asher's 1st school play: The Lorax March 31 2010 - Asher and the 2 layer Lorax cake by Mama, prepping on stage as a Barbaloot, it was a kindergarten play- everyone was blurry and in constant motion, Asher decided mid play to lay down on his belly (ha), the big Barbaloot exodus scene Asher put on a sad almost crying acting clinic (we all thought he was going to really cry), and then he realized every other Barbaloot had left the stage (and exited via Looney Tunes hand shake pretend tap dance), the crush to the follow up dessert table, eating the cake, hanging out with Ryan- one of the Lorax, and a drum. |

April 2010 - Easter, April 4. On the way to Grandmas we drove through the wildfire at the Montezuma wildlife refuge. Asher dressed and ready for the hunt, and all tuckered out snoozing on the way home. At the end of Spring break- Asher acting goofy at the table, and a family of deer at 6:30am in the backyard before going to school. 4/27: Asher brings home one of the chicks from the Y program for an overnight visit for asherchickpalooza. Willow really did not like the visitor, and we narrowly avoided a repeated of the late March "fuzzy chick" incident that ended with parts all over the house and Asher in tears. Asher and papa in the hammock on a Friday evening. |

May & June 2010 - Asher in the car on the way into school in the morning. One night after Asher went to bed, we heard lots of bumping and getting in and out of bed, the next morning this is what we woke up to: extensive drawings and plans taped to his wall using Mario stickers, some even on toilet paper- isn't that what they do in the joint to break out? Lounging at bedtime with Willow, and checking out some crafts at the Victor fun fair (which also resulted in his unplanned ownership of goldfish), Asher makes the newspaper. Warm weather hits and he creates his own suburban pool, Slip n' slide with our neighbor Mya, lounging with Papa (and looking startled), putting on a show for Mama's 30th birthday party #1 (all the girls love a man and a guitar), and exploring homemade superhero outfits he made all by himself. |

| June & July 2010 - Asher has a graduation cermony (6/16/10) from his school program (Chris had some problems figuring out the date!), posing with the cakes he made, posing with his teachers from the Y program, and the ceremony. Asher forces Emma Dorn to take his picture in his kingdom, Spends time with Carrie, and plays at a backyard BBQ (that's his playroom post BBQ). Early July giant sucker psycho look, swimming and watching fireworks and reading with Grandma in Norwich on July 4th, blankie poses and missing a front tooth. Asher looks for justice in his suped up batmobile. Asher and a homemade worm habitrail, showing off his domestic skills with a blanket he made for papa (with tape, staples, and an "A"), and wearing every hat in the house. |
