cast away
I have some posts I need to catch up on. I get so busy with the children, there doesn't seem to be time. When we were at the funeral, we stayed in the cabins at Fairystone State Park. The day we spent at the lake, Marshall fished all day. He had no desire to swim. He didn't care about the water slides and such. He stayed on the side and fished over by the bushes. For about 8 hours. I would go over and visit with him, or bring him food. During one of the chats, he caught a fish. He was pretty excited because he was "down to about a 1/4 of a worm", meaning he had no bait left. He decided rather than take the fish off the hook, he would just leave it on and use it as bait to catch a really big fish. I couldn't resist the chance to video it. I used my still camera for the video. It's not really clear and it has no sound. If you look closely, you'll see he already has a fish on the line before he casts it. Marshall never caught the "big one", but he didn't get discouraged.

Looks like Marshall was having a great time fishing. It was nice visiting with you today at the beach.
I love, love, love that picture of just his feet! How adorable!!
What a nice thing to be able to be content for so long, just enjoying himself. Cute.
Heidi. That is amazing that he does so well on his own. I'm sure he had a heck of a teacher though! My dad took us out fishing before - but I was 16 years old! My dad always baited the hook for me! He's a trooper and will for sure be an amazing fisherman!
Mom,
Marshall looks so totaly 100% cute!!!
