Finian Turns 4

Who is this pint sized Michael Myers? Why, it's Finian! 

We can't really explain *when* the obsession started... But first it was the Halloween music (which he requests on Alexa all of the time, "Alexa, play Michael Myers by John Carpenter), then silly YouTube videos of people dancing in their Michael Myers costumes. But it's an obsession now. We got him the mask for his birthday and our good friends supplied the coveralls. Obviously he's been wearing it every day since his birthday on Sunday. 

   This kid is a unique one! His birthday fell on Easter this year - and will happen again in 2034 and then again in 2045. 
We celebrated with cupcakes and his presents. 
There's a lot to say about this little guy. Being less than a year old when the COVID shutdown occurred - he's our only child to fight going to school and fight us on nearly everything else! He is, umm, spirited. For the last two years, he's come with me to the home school collective where I teach sewing two days a week and gets to spend time in the nursery with Grandma Sally. She is a miracle worker and has worked through his tears and tantrums. 
So Happy 4th Birthday to you, Finian. I hope you never lose your fierce convictions, but find a way to wrangle the strong emotions in that little body. You are full of love and sweetness, too.
