Quinlin turns 10 tomorrow...

Posted by Judy (Brooksville, Florida, United States) on 17 November 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

This was taken in the summer of this handsome young fellow, who is increasingly shy and not terribly willing to have his photo taken. I caught him here with a cute grin...

This begins a birthday series as we have 5 of them between now and the end of the month.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog; your comments are greatly appreciated. I apologize for not getting to all of your posts. I will visit as time permits.

Happy Birthday Quinlin! So many birthdays in such a short time and close to the holidays. That is a lot of cake!

@Barbara: Fortunately only three of them are in Spring Hill - the other two out of state, so that's a 'little' less cake! ;D

Magda from Vancouver, Canada

I like his expression amidst all these boats; something like a proud admiral as he surveys the fleet.

@Viewfinder: I'm smiling as a result of your words ... as I can hear him say, "No ..... more pictures, Nana?" One day he was telling me I didn't need to take any more, that I knew what he looked like! <grin>

Jeff from Pembroke Dock, United Kingdom

I could be wrong,but I think he looks like his Nana...Stop embarrassing the young man..Quinlin next time your Nana takes your photo in the pool, give her a good splashing...Happy birthday to you. ;>))

17 Nov 2008 6:19pm

@Jeff: You're funny, Jeff ... but then, you already know that! ;D
I hope he doesn't splash me this week; we'll be lucky if the pool doesn't FREEZE!

Michael Skorulski from Cigel, Slovakia

Best wishes on his birthday. He looks like you.

@Michael Skorulski: Thanks, Michael ... he's quite a combination of genes (now isn't that profound) ... but does have more of his father's side when it comes to looks, than his mother's. :D
