River Chronicles: Posted up on the patio, my young oldest is the epitome of all that's right in the world. to be sure, he was just fussin' with my younger youngest over a toy neither really wanted. And just prior to that, this picture of relaxation and leisure finished his fit over a millionth NO from mom. None of that, however, matters one bit because, in this moment, my River is allowing himself to embrace this new more free emotion. So he climbs up and reclines like a pro, and his grin hints at the man he will be one day. It is no mistake that he is River. He is destined to be wild and destructive, peaceful and sustaining. This is his father and my legacy to him, and this pose, this picture foreshadows that end. So I snap away and smile as the river rests a while.
