Image of the Day: running in an oval
Filed under: Daily Cutie

This one made me smile; I love shots that capture kids' personalities. It also reminded me a of a great story my dad likes to tell about a little boy and his mother who he saw at the natural history museum. They stepped outside, the boy holding her hand and bouncing. "Here?" asked the boy. "Not yet," said the mother. They kept walking toward the grass, repeating their question and answer. When they finally got to the lawn, she turned loose of his hand, and he ran in circles until he was red-faced and tired.
"Phew," he sighed as they went back inside.
I have a feeling that the boys in this wonderful shot by Mamabrarian are doing something similar -- getting their fidgets and wiggles out by racing around in circles.
