Daniel Larusso?

I think I mis-named my son. I think I should have named him Daniel Larusso from Karate Kid. Am I dating myself to mention that movie? Remember that part where Mister Miyagi was trying to catch flies and Daniel comes in and catches it on the first try? Owen can catch a fly like no one I've ever seen. This afternoon, he came up from downstairs and told me to look at what he found. He opened his hands and a live fly flew out. If this was the only time, I might think that the fly was already wounded, but He does it often. It's hilarious. When his fly flew away, it went up to the ceiling (see, smart fly) and he wanted me to get it down. He thinks anyone is able to catch a fly. I'm lucky to be able to catch it with a flyswatter.I added this picture on Sept. 17. Owen came into our bedroom this morning holding yet another fly. This one he caught in his bedroom. He had it by the leg. If you look in the picture, you can see him holding the fly. He was being a dork, but I finally got my picture. Crazy kid!!

Mikelle,
Of course Owen likes flies. He gets it from his dad. Don't you remember the "go store buy more?" story about Nathan? It is a favorite at our house!
Cute Blog, by the way. It's so fun to catch up on you guys and your kids!
We sure love you!
