Guthrie is at that magical age - exactly two - that seems so often to embody childhood to me. Early this summer we found a frog hat, during a time he was obsessed with frogs, in the dollar section at Target. No brainer. While reviewing photos from the summer, I noticed that Guthrie's yellow frog hat was showing up in so many of them. (I especially like the leprachaun like pose as he jumps on the bed at Mandy and Todd's house.)
The thing is, the hat itself just looks like summer, when you're two, and could be any year at all. It's a classic, like the age itself. As we prepare for fall, and look forward to cooler temperatures and all the joys of the holidays, I'm looking at these pictures and realizing that the summer Guthrie was two is over. It was a good summer, and Guthrie did two with style.

Don't be surprised when I stop by just to smell their little heads.
