"If you don't see the book on the shelf, write it." ~ Beverly Cleary
Carter and Suz came over to my parent’s house while we were in Anacortes and my mom pulled out some of toys.
Carter spent some of of the time with Izak’s old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle motorcycle.
After a careful inspection, it was road-ready and Carter made sure he got some miles on the tires.
He takes motorcycle riding very seriously, as you can tell.
1. My dad and grandpa both have the same name – my dad stole my grandpa’s nickname when he was in first grade.
2. I didn’t ask them to stand like this when I took the picture, but I like how they are both looking at the camera.
3. They are handy: my dad carries a Leatherman and my grandpa carries a Swiss Army Knife.
4. My grandpa is very, very funny, but has a serious compassionate side to him. He is a great man.
5. My dad is very, very smart. He has a library of his own books that is the same size of our guestroom. He too is a great man.
6. My grandpa likes to wear collared shirts. My dad likes to wear T-Shirts.
7. My dad drives a truck he calles The Truck of the Future. My grandpa drives a car that is WAYYYY newer than my dad’s truck.
8. I never really thought they looked alike until I saw these pictures.
