#7 Daddy See, Daddy Do



There must be ten thousand reasons to take a baby seriously. So every now and then a reminder comes due that babies are about the most fun a person can have, that they are meant for playing, for laughing. Sometimes they even make laughter of us all.

Like this little picture of Buxton watching television. He loves it, especially during football games. No idea where he got that one. Buxton has a favorite news station, one he will watch for an entire telecast, crying only if the channel changes. So when Buxton began sitting up only a month or so in, it seems he already had an idea what he would do with his new found talent.

Look at the way he stares right through me and the camera as if we were not there, treating us both as any other obstruction separating him from his favorite program. Again, no idea where he got that one. There is no telling how many pictures might be taken of Buxton sitting on the couch watching television during his lifetime. I just doubt any one of them will match his first.
