Vernon says he loves the colors; now that it's spring, he is loving the bright greens of the leaves. He was so thrilled to find a robin's nest under the deck with blue eggs in it. Especially after struggling to keep focus on school and activities, Vernon's days are always better when he gets time to be outside. If it were up to him, he might never come inside!
Giraffes because of their long necks and their babies are adorable!
Vernon loves to make a muddy construction site, ride bikes and play tag with friends from school and his siblings. He is learning to ice skate in the winter, and loves to swim in the summer. He enjoys time by the ocean and loves the beach. He loves to learn about boating with his grandfather!
