The boy still shreds….
That is guitar-speak for really crazy wicked wild guitar playing, I think of the heavy metal variety. Yes, it has been eons so I decided I should blog about the boys. We will NOT tell them that when they were young I referred to them as C.O.U. (Center of the Universe), as they already think they are. Just because it’s true doesn’t mean we need to let them KNOW that, after all one is a teen and the other will be (sigh, sob) soon, and we all know about teenage attitudinosity. Still, they are both pretty cool.
Recently, it was Easter. Here is Eli searching for his eggs:
And here is Joshua, searching (Not!) for his. I guess at 15 one is too cool to search for eggs? So to make up for it, I’m helping Eli eat his 100 percent share of the eggs. Ahem. Plump goes the Mommy. Anyway….
And HERE, thanks to the wonders of modern technology, video camera, Joshua’s uploading to YouTube skills as well as guitar, is the teenage beast shredding, with a perfect take on the first try. If you are over 16 and/or not male, you may want to make sure the speakers are turned down a bit…..
Later this week, Eli’s latest artwork…..now I’m going to pop the lasagna in the oven and enjoy the first balmy day since last October or thereabouts!

Ah, well I remember those days. He’s pretty good! My son took up the bass guitar, forgoing a very promising French horn career, LOL. Thanks for bringing back old memories.

We have attitudinosity – I intend to pinch that word from you, by the way – and mine (girls) are only 11.5 and 9.5. It’s mostly the 11.5YO who has attitudinosity, but I’m sure the other one is going to catch up soon. Luckily, I also still have a lovely baby boy (well, he’s 6) who thinks Mummy is the CoU!!
