No, he's holding a rock with a shape familiar amongst males. The picture isn't great, but if you look hard, you can see the stone(s) He literally stepped on them......it while we were setting up for pictures. It only seemed natural in a group of boys to use them/it as a prop.
Isn't this what life's all about, creating memories for your kids like the ones you had when you where a kid. I have some great memories of my youth, things that make me smile whenever I think of them. I'm trying my best to do the same for my two kids.
Thanks for the kind responses! We're enjoying ourselves a great deal and I haven't taken a moment of it for granted this year. I know that nothing lasts forever, save for some memories:thumbsup:
