Reading the Morning Paper


I couldn't resist taking this picture this morning. As many of you know, Sam loves golf and anything that deals with golf. We drive by Jones Creek neighborhood and he sees a tiny sliver of the golf course and he starts chanting "golf course, golf course!"--in his own accent and dialect, of course. Lately, Augusta has had many great photos of the Augusta State Golf Team in the news because of their amazing second time championship. Alan and I are amazed that even when there isn't really a golf club or ball in sight, somehow, Sam knows that those are photos of golfers or of a golf course.

Well, this morning as we were eating breakfast. I was reading the newspaper and Rory McIlroy is, of course, on the front page of the paper and the front page of the sports section for his outstanding performance at the US Open.

Sam sees this picture in the newspaper and insists on getting his hands on it. The next thing I know, Sam is sitting at the breakfast table "reading" the newspaper. Then he finds a picture of a baseball player and gets just as excited as he did Rory's picture. All through breakfast, he kept scanning the paper like it was the most important news. It was very cute!

I thought it was a cute little moment this morning...just thought I'd blog about it :)
