...IV

If I could cheer this IV on, I would.
I would will it to work with every drip drip drip in the chamber.
COME ON YOU STEROIDS. Let's DO this thing.  :)

There are many things I could blog about today, and a thousand other photographs I could have taken  for my 365 project.

I could post a photograph of this cute sign at the boys' school, spotted on the school run...

Or this photograph taken today of a summer-y patch of daisies...

Or this little duck fella, seen on my travels in and around Bushey today. 

(Although quality control, and a blurry little webbed foot, prevents that one from happening...)

Maybe I could use this photograph of a grumpy Boo after falling in the duck pond (True story!) 

"You guys are gonna have to help me practise feeding the ducks. I'm not joking..You really really will"

But today is not about funny signs, or daisy patches, nor muddy boys or duck fellas. (No matter how cute they are.)

I could pretend it is, but it isn't.

It is about someone I love very much, who has not been doing so great lately. 

It's about the treatment he has started today which is going to make him better.

This project is about documenting a year, and this is a positive day. It's the day we have all been waiting for. 

And I could post no other image.

Because nothing is more important to me today.

...Hover fly

Sometimes, its good to smoke. Secretly. Hiding behind a lamppost. Because then you get shots you may not otherwise have got. Like this busy little hover fly fella. :)

...Worry Dolls.

One of Dylan's loveliest buddies bought him these Guatemalan worry dolls for his birthday and he LOVES em.
Say hello to Annie, Harry, Zoom Zoom, Buttercup, Rosie, and Fearless. Currently residing underneath Dylan's pillow and running away with his worries in the night.

'The legend says that when worrying keeps a person awake, he tells his worries to the worry dolls and puts them under his pillow. The dolls then take over the worrying for the person, who then sleeps peacefully through the night. When morning comes, The worries have gone.'

...The Big Ice Cream Van Hijack.

The school summer fair for us on this sun-shiny Saturday. Hoop-a-duck, lucky dip, hotdogs and chips, bouncy castles, aaaand.....

The loveliest ice cream van man of all ice cream van men, (lets call him Mr Mac) who happily let me take some photos of Dylan inside his van.
He pulled him right on up through that window without so much as a bat of the eyelid.
And he didn't even look at me like I had lost my mind when I asked him. 

We heart him. (And pledge to buy our Ice creams from this van only, for the entire summer...)

Dylan made his very own 99 while he was there, which is pretty much the same thing as being King of The World.
