It's A Clark's Life

Dylan Through The Years

Five years ago, Katharine had a great idea, and that was to photograph the boys in the same chair on their birthday each year.  Here are the first 5 years for Dylan.  It was funny to realize that four of them have been in Japan.  Time truly does fly.

 

Dylan's 5th Birthday........Where has the time gone?

It's hard to imagine that it's been 5 years already, and at the same time it's tough to imagine life before Dylan.  We are so blessed to have such an amazing boy. 

Birthday Breakfast - He was cool with the alien pancake, but not getting his picture taken.

Cake.....to infinity and beyond.

Lego-rama......I guess I know what we'll be doing this week after work.

It's always good to have a little helper.

Toy Story Alien cupcakes also invaded his classroom.

 

An Entrepreneur is Born

Dylan wanted a stuffed Luigi to go with his stuffed Mario, so Dad and Mom said he would have to work for it.  Well, apparently he isn't down with work'n for the man, he wants to be the man.  Kate and Dylan were reading a book the other night that had a lemonade stand in it.  From that he came up with the idea to set up a cupcake stand, and the idea wouldn't leave him alone.  At that point, I think an entrepreneur was born.  Below is a photo journal of him setting up the shop and getting the prize.

Advertising

Video of the the advertiser himself.   He would actually switch to a Japanese saying for Japanese people that walked by, after I told him that English might not work.  It worked, and he was thrilled.

The help

The payoff

I don't think Kate nor I could have been any prouder of the little guy.
