Mr. Mischief

What does mischief look like?


It peeks around the corner with the face of an angel...



It teases with smiles and laughter...


Mischief occasionally plays by the rules.



Just to throw you off.





Because what mischief really wants is to be where it should not,




To play in places more interesting than the rules dictate,




To explore closed cupboards, forbidden drawers, and weave its dangerous ways into your heart...


Just so you let your guard down long enough that it can start all over again.


I love Mischief.

This is my favorite, FAVORITE age. About 9 months until they decide to really embrace age 2. He is absolutely adorable. I don't have words to describe how much I love those pictures. Good for him! He deserves a little mischief in his life.
