And our Journey to Jhonatan

It's a Shore Thing



We took Jhonatan to the Eastern Shore for one night this past weekend. He loved playing and exploring near the water. As I have mentioned before Jhonatan loves to experience new things. He jumped in the kayak with me and my nephew and paddled through the water like he had been doing it his whole life. Later, he used one of our daughter's dip nets to try and catch minnows. I wish I had a picture of him in the kayak with binoculars (which he was wearing around his neck) in one hand and the dip net in the other...looking for "baby fishes". By far, the highlight was his first time fishing...



Jhonatan actually laughed out loud while reeling in the fish.



Jhonatan caught a nice size fish! He was very pleased with his first catch.



We explained that his lovely catch was a little too small to keep but Jhonatan wanted "un mas photo, please" before throwing it back.

It is so much fun having Jhonatan around. He can be energic and playful at one moment and sweet and caring in the next. From rough and tumble soccer games with Ginny and Cassie, to jumping rope with Tess, and even playing kitchen with "Chef Eva"...Jhonatan definitely enjoys life to the fullest!
