Bloom has a new passtime - Googling for animals. He can't stop raving about the diversity of fauna and the resplendent life around him. Recently, he happened to read about albino peacock, and he couldn't resist educating me about one. He googled it, and went on and on and on, showing picture after picture. When he shows, and if I divert, he places his little palm on my chin and turns it everytime my head turns the other way. Its such a pleasure - having his one hand to scroll through the computer, and one palm to hold my chin!
Then suddenly he chanced upon an albino rat. Then an albino elephant. Then an albino lion. Then an albino alligator. And on went the list.
Finally, he declared, "When nature runs out of color, it creates albinos", much to my surprise. When I gave an appreciative look with a large smile beaming, he said, 'I was just quoting from the web'. That honesty!!! How I wish I could pocket him back into me, and protect that innocence and excitement and honesty for all his life. Lots of love, buddy!
