This is my pick for A Word A Week Photography Challenge-Smile by fellow blogger, A Word in Your Ear.
It’s hard to pick just one. They kind of go together.

“I’m a surfer, Mom!”
I’d say he has a winning smile.
NOW THAT IS A WINNING SMILE

Very adventurous and brave little boy! My 6 year-old still freaks out when he gets water in his ears in the bath. Awesome.
He’s 7 now. Times have changed a little, but he’s still a free spirit!
That is some brilliant kid!
I think so, too!
this is great!
